Ok, so last night, I had a dream that I was competing in a triathlon. Great!!! The waves of people are about 5 minutes apart going into the water...I was in the last wave. There were about 2 waves to go and I left to go to the bathroom.... When I got back, there was only me and another guy there...we kept waiting for the official to come back to tell us we could go...and all of a sudden people were coming in from the race. We missed the whole thing!!! I cried...(in my dream)...
Man.... if I'm ever at an event w/ a red swim cap....I'm NOT going to the bathroom!! =)

Funny how our stress dreams change from the "I have an exam today in a class that I didn't even remember registering for, much less attended a lecture" to the " I missed my event" or in my case "I forgot my to bring my bike" as we venture into the world of triahtlons!

btw - you don't own a red cap do you??

I have a recurring triathlon dream where I take a wrong turn and get totally lost on the bike leg.
Somehow I end up at my personal trainer's house and we sit around a chat a bit before I realize I'm in the middle of a race.
The rest of the dream I'm panicking...trying desperately to catch everyone else.

It's silly but when I'm in a tri, I go over the bike route several times just in case it's a bad omen.

cheers

I'm glad I'm not the only one with weird dreams.  Some things sure play on the mind.!!

YellowK8t,

Remember as a kid when you finally kicked the boogie man's ass in your dream? (Well, I learned to.....) The next time that bad triathlon dream comes again...just remember you can pee in the water, and you won't have the bad dream again! (I won't be held accountable though if you piss in your bed LOL) Or did you have to partake in newspaper reading activity in the porta potty? (TMI)

What I wanna know is the significance of the other guy who was left behind too.....hmmmmm.

Before my last race, I dreamt all night long about being later for the race and missing the whole thing. It was terrible. I kept waking up to check the clock.

i had a similar dream two nights before my first tri. people I am close to were "conspiring" to keep me from making it to the start in time to race.

I have had a similar dream where I couldn't find a parking spot and then couldn't get myself organized fast enough to get myself to the starting line of a race !!! I missed the whole thing too!

What in the heck does that mean?

You know, the weirdest part is... I don't even know who the guy is!! And he was wearing a red cap too....however, aren't waves usually gender-specific? Maybe it's my future husband sending me a sign that no matter what, he'll always wait for me!! =) awwww....kinda makes you wanna puke! =)
