Regular  162  |  Subject: How much sleep do you get per night?For me, it's never enough: about 5 hours. My days start early and end late. Sigh. |

Member 46 South Jersey | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? Usually around 6 1/2. I go to bed at 10 and get up at 5:30. Unfortunately, I usually wake up around 12 and 3, for about half an hour to an hour each time. :-( |

Master 1927  Guilford, CT | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? I aim for 6 but usually come in around 5.5 hrs. Once every couple weeks I'll have a crash out and get 8 or 9 but not very often....not ideal. I could definitley use an extra hour in the day. |

Expert 793 South Florida | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? I try for 8 or so but I get up early, (4am), so it's hard to get to bed that early. |

Elite 7783 PEI, Canada | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? I'm usually right around 7.5 to 8 hours. Go to bed between 9:30 and 10:30 and get up at 5:45. |

| Expert 721 Chenequa WI | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? I try to get 8-9 hours a night, but just graphed my sleep for the year on Trainingpeaks and see that its typically been 7-7.5. I feel better with more sleep - I need to work on that. |

| Extreme Veteran 475 Watertown, MA | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? I plan for between 8 and 9 but usually get between 7 and 8. If I don't get at least 7 I'm dragging the next day...I wish I could survive on less but such is life. |

| Elite 3144 | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? I average about 7 per night, which is a big improvement than when I was at my last job. Last year I was getting 5-6 and I was NOT happy about it! |

| Regular 162 | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? Yeah, I am none too happy about my 5-ish hours/night but between working out/training, work, commute, and critter care that's all I've got left. |

| 798 | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? I aim for 7 but depending on how quickly I fall asleep it could be a lot less. Before I started triathlon it would take me an average of 2-4 hours to fall alseep. I also try to sneak a nap in at least a few days a week as well. I teach, so this past summer when I was doing bigger hours I could sleep up to 10 hours and the recovery was so much faster. I've been dragging since we started back. |

| Pro 4824 Houston | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? +/- 8 hours, which is wonderful and glorious after years of 1-3 hour stretches while nursing babies for years on end. Everyone sleeps through the night now. |

| Champion 5522 Frisco, TX | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? +/- 6 hrs - either I workout late and can't get to sleep or I work out early. Between FT job and being on call 2 nights a week, class2-3 nights a week, coaching soccer, and training I seem to be letting the amount of sleep suffer... Oh yeah, very little to no caffeine... I am perpetually tired now... Something is going to have to give before too long.. |

| Master 1790 Tyler, TX | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? I try to get 7 hours during weekdays (often is closer to 6.5) and 8 or more during the weekends. Once I get the 7 hour thing down better I'll shoot for 7:15, then 7:30 during weekdays. I find it's easier to adjust bedtime gradually than all at once. Brian |

| Master 1376 Chicago | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? I try and get 7 - 8 hours a night. For the last week, I've gone to bed around 9:30 and wake up at 3:30 due to work stress. It sucks getting up that early and not falling back asleep. |

| Veteran 126 | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? Usually about 5.5-6.5 during the week. Try to catch up on the weekends. Never been a great sleeper. |

| Master 2042 Albany, NY | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? I voted 6 to 8 hours but that's really only when I fall asleep putting the kids to bed. If I manage to get through that awake, I usually don't go to bed until at least midnight. Up by 6... I stumble through the week half awake, hoping for one "sleep in day" on the weekend. |

| Member 38 | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? Yow. Looks like I am a bit of an outlier here and am the only one who will admit to being a night owl. If it weren't for realities of life like working I'd probably drift to a schedule where bedtime would be 4am and wakey wakey would be noon or 1pm! 9 hours plus still feels about like what my body really wants. Less than that and I can function fine if I stay busy. More and I just feel a bit detached. Work for me includes some evening stuff (maintenance windows, we calls 'em) and being on call. If we have a lot of that going on I can easily get into a 2am-9am kind of schedule for sleep. Lately it has been 12:30-8 because work has been relatively undemanding. If I only get that 7 or so at night I need a nap after work. |

| Regular 75 Bishop, CA | Subject: RE: How much sleep do you get per night? I have a love-hate relationship with sleep. I love getting lots of sleep at night, as long as that doesn't mean waking up past 8:30. I love mornings. On the other hand, I hate going to sleep and I hate taking naps and I hate being tired in the middle of the day. I just feel like sleep is a huge waste of time. Even at night, I will lay in my bed with the lamp on and read until I physically cannot keep my eyes open any longer. In fact, I don't even turn the light off. I let my boy who always comes to bed after I'm already asleep do it. I resist like a little kid, except without all the screaming. |
