The 10 Best Valentine's Day Ideas For Swimmers

As swimmers, it's hard to catch a day off. We're constantly on the go, shuttling to and from practice and traveling to swim meets. So on Valentine's Day weekend, a weekend designed to be spent with the one(s) you love-- what's a swimmer to do?

We're suckers for a good love story, so we're sharing a handful of Valentine's ideas for the swimmer in your life. Whether you're planning a galentines day with your best girlfriends or hoping for a romantic text from your crush, these are for you; 

1) Bring your coach a warm coffee with a note that says, "we like you a latte" (get it?)

2) Stick a love note in their swim bag for them to find when they get to the pool

3) After practice, take your valentine out to get a burrito (or should we say, bae-rrito)

4) Send them a sweet text that will be waiting on their phone when they get out of practice

5) Have a heart shaped pizza delivered to the pool (because nothing says "I love you" like pizza-- are we right?)

6) Stop by towards the end of their practice and wait by the pool with a warm towel (talk about the warm and fuzzies)

7) Leave a box of chocolates on the diving block infront of their lane

8) Buy matching Valentine's Day swim caps for you and your girlfriends

9) Recite a cheesy pick-up line, like, "you make my heart flutter kick." Or, "Are you the 400m IM, because you take my breath away."

10) Write "reasons why I love you" on the lap counter, and for each lap number write a different thing you love about them
