[quote=Anonymous]I don’t have experience with ADHD but I have lots of experience with swimming. It might just be that your kid swims faster in the evenings. I was faster at night. Whenever I swam in meets with a morning prelims/evening finals format my goal was just to get into the final knowing I would drop time at night. The difference was significant for me. Before I figured out what I needed to do to swim well enough in the morning, I would be in the consolation finals and swim a time that would’ve been top 3 or 4 in the final heat… very frustrating. My own child does not have ADHD but they were significantly faster at the evening B meet than the morning A meet this week. I could tell during warmups that he looked tired. Maybe it’s just how some of us are wired. Swimming uses every muscle and everything needs to be firing in order to swim fast. [/quote]
