[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a HS swimmer, I went to bed at 8-8:30pm until I left for college! As an adult I am still a morning person. Older kids always drove me to practice and then when I was 17, I drove younger swimmers. My neighbor has a HS age swimmer and her carpool rotates by week so that each family gets up early all week and then has 2-3 weeks “off”. Kids are responsible for getting themselves up and out the door. [/quote] In general, I’ve found that swim has enabled my kids to be morning people even through the teen years. And it gave them a good tolerance for early mornings for non-swim things. 6 am flights were not a big deal. And 8 am soccer games are not considered early to swimmers. I have a rower and it’s the same thing. I would imagine ice hockey players and figure skaters experience the same. [/quote]
