2 Swim caps for race day?

Dawn Cass

Hello...looking for advise. Less than a week to race day and loads going through the head...

Swim caps....should I wear two? Mine on head first, goggles, then the official one.

Good...safety from others kicking your goggles off and killing the race.

Bad...feels like a lot/tight on the head.

I have done both however looking to get thoughts from team.

Thanks!

Why not goggles and then one cap on top of goggles?

^This^. This is what competitive swimmers will do if they're concerned about losing their goggles. Wearing two caps will be HOT also.

I wear my goggles under my cap.

I've only done two caps when the water is really cold. Otherwise, goggles under cap.

Thanks all...goggles under cap sounds a better idea!
