Description
It's hard to talk about swimming with SCAQ without making it sound like snake oil: makes you faster, stronger, tanner, trimmer, happier (endorphins, hello!) and more productive (you wake up earlier so you can go to amazing morning practices and then during the day you get more done). No joke.
And they have like a thousand different coached workouts you can go to every week at any of 7 different pools... included in one monthly charge.
All levels/speeds are welcome at practices and, like any good drug, first one's free.

Description
See the whole Comme des Garçons for Speedo line at Dover Street Market. I would love to see some swimmer guy rocking the black-and-white bike-short cut at the pool some morning... Nothing like a couture-clad "Good morning!" to make 6:30 a little friendlier.

At this year's all-school athletic awards banquet, Speedo gets my vote for Most Improved Swimmer!
Their partnership with Comme des Garcons isn't something all swimmers might appreciate, but this girl is going to be working this suit up and down her lane like it's a runway.

Butterfly bikini. Get it? Butterfly? Clever homonymy and a cute lap-swimming suit to boot!
P.S. Lots of ladies at the pool are wearing suits by Speedo cut like this - triathlon-inspired briefs - and it's flattering on everyone.

Description
The non-Speedo Speedo! Double cross back is barer than your typical speedo and single red chest stripe is sporty without being aggressively graphic. Thusfar, this suit is my favorite iteration of the classic cut.

Description
Speedo XDskin™ fabric absorbs less water and helps you stay drier. Seams are softer and flatter. And you MUST click through to see the asterisk-meets-exclaimation point back.

Swimming: good for your booty, bad for your hair. Don't play with chlorine damage and, at least, use a tried and true chlorine-removing shampoo.

I would totally try swimming with an MP3 player, if only to guarantee that I don't have the same 10 seconds of a song on mental repeat for 3,000 yards.

Speedo Print Kickboard

Description
OK, fine, technically this kickboard is for kids. But no one needs a raft to stay afloat when kicking. A little buoyancy goes a long way... and smaller kickboards are easier do to flip turns with. "Flip turns when kicking?" you say. That's right: as you approach the wall just fold your arms (at the shoulders) and the board straight toward your waist and do your normal flip turn. And don't panic in the middle, it's exactly the same motion. Always a crowd pleaser. Just like a bubble-gum pink kickboard.

Ring suits are huge this summer, and even though this one's chlorine resistant and has a comfortable racerback cut, it still looks like something out of Elle.

A mellow yellow swim bag!
Love the airy outer bag... there's also a waterproof pocket inside so your celly doesn't get zapped.

Description
Why I love this Speedo:
1-Double draw strings keep the bottoms AND top in place
2-Bottoms are a little boyish, which is so cute. Sometimes training bikinis can be either really high-waisted or, worse, high-legged a la Olivia Newton John.
3-Lap swimmers may have to suffer through a lifetime of tanlines over the shoulders, but at least torsos don't have to be chlorine-white all summer.

Description
I'm so fast in my pearly goggles! OK, fine. I'm not really that fast... but they probably do make me fastER (a little?)... These fit my face really well... I didn't know there were women's-specific goggles until I discovered these. So glad I took the plunge. (Did you like my bad pun?)
