We’re back with swimming’s TopTenTweets of the week. If you haven’t noticed, David Marsh has been killing the Twitter game in his return to college swimming — so much so that he took two out of the top 10 spots this week. From Golden Goggles attire to some impressive age groupers, scroll to see what made the cut!

Title should've been "It's Been a Pretty Tough Transition." Hard to walk away from the sport you love. Thanks for the vid @swimswamnews https://t.co/FDg3VxdfFp

4 years ago today I completed something that I was repeatedly told was impossible – swimming the length of Britain. Keep true to your dreams and never give up everyone. pic.twitter.com/obfvSIEkHl

If he can swim the length of Britain, you can make it through Monday morning practice.

Even legendary coaches aren’t above this age old swim tradition.

It’s always a good time to show the D-squad some love.

I’d go with “back in my day” snowing in miami-walking up hill- asbestos dropping from the ceiling at AU.. 45 min on a stretch cord in place. https://t.co/9hQuiEqxGh

Our jaws are dropping at “45 min on a stretch cord in place,” but whatever he did, it worked.
#7 – Holy cow, one (maybe two?) swimmers touched the flags!!!
Who did that??
Touching the flags isn’t impressive….
Ok, it’s 20 something degrees & miserable on the east coast & worse than that in the Mid West & yet the weather is so nice in San Diego.
That’s not Marsh trolling a little video there. Oh no, nope, not at all.
David Marsh knows exactly what he’s doing. Always.
