My first goal for starting to swim at the pool is to just know what to expect, know how to play by the rules and not look ridiculous as I stretch my cap over my head.
So that brings us to the first lesson of the week: how to put on your swim cap without looking like an idiot. Check out these videos to see two different techniques:
