I hate Swede goggles. Best fit varies by person, so the best bet is to find somewhere where you can try to figure out which ones work for you.

Buy Swedes for goggles. There is nothing better

Do you swim in races or just exercise/recreation?

Change strokes when you need a rest... keep moving and going. Try to push for

I strongly disagree with "Leaving it all in the pool". Please don't.

Swimming with a snorkel at times is helpful

I use a snorkel and do a mile freestyle straight, 1-2 times a week

That is good stuff. I did the free trial period and used it this morning.

Man, three day a week of swimming is a lot. Don't burn out too quickly.
