Because of goggles I developed dark spots(not bags) under my eyes.Well, at least I am guessing that goggles rubbing on my skin had something to do with that.I was wondering if anyone experience that before and if you know what to do to avoid those?
I don't know whether there's any connection, but when I was first trained in going off a starting block, one of my instructors had the idea that the way to do this was to have me watch a demonstration and then try to imitate it. Her idea was that they could just correct anything I did wrong.
After some initial embarassing attempts in which I went into the water looking something like a partially folded jackknife, I finally got a sort of decent entry. But I was aware of a stinging around my eyes whenever I hit the water. The instructor told me that my head was too high, and I should look down at my belly button as I was going in.
The advice worked, but I later discovered that the damage had already been done: I had gotten black eyes from the impact of the water!
