Shift work and training.

I've worked shifts for the past 10 years and I've always used this as an excuse for my piss poor stamina.
I've just read this great little interview with last years TD winner Josh Kato who like me is a nurse and works night shifts. Clearly my excuse is not valid.
Anyone else here work nights/shifts and has any advice on training or transitioning from nights to days?

I read that too, but I suspect he's just that way inclined. All the training in the world without the right head won't get you over the finish line, particularly that quickly!

Once upon a time I used to drive tube trains for a living. The shifts on that are all over the place, the worst were split shifts where you do a bit in the morning and evening rush hours and get 4 or 5 hours off in the day. I generally cycle commuted, I don't see working shifts as being different to working normal hours. Unless you live round the corner from work you've still got to commute.
