Triathlon nightmare
I have the bike portion of my upcoming 70.3 on my training schedule for the next few weeks.
I live local to the event, so I figured I might as well train on the course.
So I had a dream about my upcoming triathlon last night. Apparently I went on autopilot and after rode home instead of to the finish line. I walked into my house stripped off the bike gear and got the running shoes on. All of a sudden I realized I was in the wrong place. I had to get the helmet, bike shoes, and sunglasses back on.
Then I couldn't figure out how to get back on the course so I wouldn't have missed any of the checkpoints. Not only had I lost all the time from going home instead of following the course, I couldn't figure out how to get back on course and I didn't want to get DQ'd for taking a shortcut.
I finally saw a large group of cyclists and decided to follow them. It turns out they were in some kind of bicycle drivers education class. They had all gotten tickets while riding their bikes and were attending the mandatory class.
That's when I woke up. OMG I need to quit eating the chocolate covered watermelon with the side of ice cream before bed!
