Some beginner questions: What kind of cross-training do you do? 2. How to find goggle

s that actually work and do not leave deep rings around the eyes?
My training goes like this at this point:
Mon: run 1 or 2 miles on treadmill
swim 1 hour w/coach
Tues: longer run or other aerobic exercise for about an hour
weight training for about an hour
Wed: same as Monday
Thurs:
same as Tuesday
Friday:
run for an hour
swim (no coach and much less disciplined) about 45 minutes
Sat:
core work for an hour (Pilates)
Sun:
often no time to workout at all, sometimes an hour run or aerobics class
Thanks for your thoughts!
Personally, my cross-training is limited. What little I do is confined to either the weight room or the result of other activities (hunting, fishing, etc. - a lot of walking). As far as goggles go, the best thing to do is try several brands and models at a sporting goods store. If they adhere to your eye sockets (even for a short time) without using the strap, then they are worth a try. The last time I changed brands I tried about 20 different pairs before I found the right ones. For me, its the View Sniper by TUSA.
