Worst/Scariest/Funniest Tri dream

My worst tri dream - I finished the swim of some unspecified triathlon, and when I got to transition, my road bike wasn't there - it was my old crappy hybrid. And not only that, it was all taken apart, so I was trying to put it back together. I ended up giving up and bagging the race. Weird.

I have this dream a lot about hockey....I'll show up at the rink and will be missing a skate, or a glove, or a shin guard.  I search all over the place and by the time I find what I need and get suited up, the game is over.

Just before my first tri last year, I had a dream that as we were standing on the shore waiting for the start, the lake dried up!  All of the water was gone...and they had to cancel the swim portion.  I was SO bummed out. 

I had a dream once that I got into transition during a sprint after the swim only to find that someone had intentionally kicked my transition area around, spreading items across the ground.  Both transitions took minutes longer than they should have, and I had to leave T2 without my number belt (subject to time penalty in this race), which I found a couple of racks over after the race.

Then I realized it wasn't a dream...

Transition was in the living room of an old farm house. Before the swim start everyone was wading in the water at the bottom of a slide at a water park. Two minutes before my wave I realize I am wearing a t-shirt and need to put on my wetsuit. Many other dreams involve not being prepared, or missing something.

I did my first Tri last month and a couple of days leading up to the race I started to read the rules on the USAT site.  Sure enough I go to sleep that night and have a nightmare about my race.  In my dream I come out of the pool and to my T1 site to find the front tire on my bike was missing.  As I looked for it frantically, a rules official comes up to me and said since I had racked my bike incorrectly I was assessed a penalty by removing my tire.  I asked how was I suppose to complete the bike portion of the race and he smiled and said I hope you can pop a wheelie and hold it for a long time.   Needless to say on the day of my race I stayed a close to my bike as possible and made sure it was racked right.
