Got my first chance ever to practice starts off a block this morning. Are the goggles supposed to hang freely from my neck as a result? I tightened, I tucked, I squeezed with my arms. Short of super glue, how do I keep my goggles in place?
While I'm at it, any other general tips for learning starts? No track blocks, but is a track start still fastest?

Wear a cap OVER your goggles. And, pull down the cap in front over the top edge of your goggles. If one cap doesn't work, try two! It also helps to place the back of the strap around the crown of your head, rather than wearing it low. Good luck! :cheerleader:
