Lesson for the day – don't go cheap on the goggles. After continually having leakage problems and painful raccoon eyes after workouts (from tightening the straps to keep the water out), I finally broke down and bought a $20 pair instead of a $12 pair. I swam comfortably for an hour with clear vision and when I took off the goggles – no markings around my eyes.
After all the money I've spent on this sport in the past 4 months, you'd think I'd have no problem spending an extra $8 for a good pair of goggles. I guess I just thought the difference in goggles was only marketing. They looked the same in the package. But boy was there a difference.
