LYC: A friend told me about a local public pool where I can go water jogging, so I did that today. STIS: where can I buy swim goggles - loosilu Oct 16, 18:58 9
- most towns have a swim shop, mostly for school teams to get uniforms, also see if the Y has a pool, chances are they have googles for sale too -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 16, 19:08 1
  - ok, I'm sure we have a Y somewhere. I'll check into that. -- nm - loosilu Oct 16, 19:09
- Do you have an REI anywhere close. Don't know if they'd have them, but maybe? Do any gyms or health clubs have their own stores? - MojaveMeg Oct 16, 19:07 6
  - yep, we have an REI. DOn't remember them having swim stuff but I will check. The pool doesn't have a store. :( -- nm - loosilu Oct 16, 19:08 5
    - I'm pretty sure you could buy some googles at the Y without being a member of it, but ask at the college pool -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 16, 19:11 4
      - hmmm, maybe at NoVA. I wonder, would a place like Dick's Sporting Goods have goggles? -- nm - loosilu Oct 16, 19:14 3
        
        They should. Other than it being seasonal. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 16, 19:14 2
