Not sure if this belongs in swim-related or non-swim-related, but I'll try here first.
Anyone want to share swim meet dreams with me? Actual dreams about swim meets? I think it would make a funny article and might cull your dreams and write about them for our newsletter.
I'll start off with mine.
I'm swimming the 500 free, SCY. There is no water in the pool. I'm pulling myself along the bottom, which is a blue vinyl I can grab hold of. It's disconcerting, but I keep pulling. I am stymied by the wall, however. How on earth do I do a flip turn without any water? I lose time. I am aware I am losing time. I decide to do open turns.
I finish and win. My time: 5:13. (In real life, my best time is 7:07, I think.)
I ask my coach (from childhood) if this is a common experience, to swim a race and not feel that there is any water in the pool, even though there is. He says for women it is a common experience, but for men it is not.
OK. Any weird-o-la swim dreams from Forumland you'd like to share?
