According to the recent poll it seems more people swim in the morning than other time of the day. Without considering the factors of distance from home to pools and work schedule, etc., would you still swim the time you do now? I can think of some pros and cons of morning/evening/midday swims:
Morning swim:
Pros: Great start of the day! Good feeling carried throughout the day. :) Water is cleaner, too.
Cons: May get sleepy or tired by late afternoon. :(
Evening swim:
Pros: No time pressure. Calm and relaxing after a long day of work. No need to take another shower at home.:)
Cons: May be too exhausted to get up early the next day. :( End of day water not as clean as morning.
Midday swim:
Pros: Take a good change of mind and a good break!
Cons: Time consuming. May have to go back to work looking like a bedraggled bird if your hair doesn't dry in time ;)
Anything to add?

I'm a morning swimmer and I'd say the advatages are energy for the day (big time) and it doesn't infringe on family time in the evenings.
Downside is that I am sleepy in the early evening. I take one day off a week to actually catch up on my sleep because it wears me out in that department.
