Swimming in your dreams

What are some of the swimming dreams you've had ? In one of my dreams, I jumped into the pool feet first and for some reason the water was only 2" deep. For grins I ran across the entire length, did a somersault, and scrambled back on all fours. Got back and asked the coach what was up with the pool, that it would have been really cool if I had done a "real" 50 free in 8 seconds. They were all staring at me because there WASN'T anything funny with the pool - for some reason I was just able to move fast enough to not sink. I get flying dreams repeatedly. But it takes a great deal of finesse, confidence, and focus to be able to do it. I start with a vertical leap working from 6" up to 15' with hangtime, then I "dive" into a horizontal position and do either breaststroke or butterfly. I can usually get about 400m before I tire. Then - I lose my touch and can't do it any more. But nobody else in the world can do it. Lastly is the nightmare about getting into a health club pool wearing a brand-new Speedo, thinking the chemicals seem out of kilter, and then when I finish my workout and climb out, I realize that my swim suit has completely turned white and is see-through. Wait - that actually happened.

    It is strange that you would mention swimming in dreams. I have one reoccuring swimming dream where I check in fo my event, go through all the motions, get on the blocks and when I start I jerk myself awake. Since I was a kid I have had this dream and I have never found out what race I was in. The next was just last night, I dreamt I was swimming a 100 free. It ws so realistic i can still smell the chorine, feel the water etc. It was so vivid I have not stoooed thinkin about it all day. Got Boost
