When I swim in the morning, I feel like a nap shortly after.
When I swim at night, I am wired and can't fall asleep for hours.
Just swimming, too -- other exercise is just the opposite.
I'm so glad I'm not alone on this one. My team practices @ 8:30-9:30 on T/Th nights.
Last night I even took an advil PM and still didn't get to sleep til 1 AM.

Every article I have ever read on "proper sleep hygeine" (as the medical world likes to call it) has stated that exercise should be completed at least four hours before bedtime, in order to sleep well. This is another reason I won't drive the (almost) two hours round trip to swim with the closest Masters team!
