[Closed] I had a terrible Olympic dream last night

Last night's dream involved me being Chinese and my wife and three kids being kidnapped by the state.

I was told that I could have them back in 4 years time, when I had won an olympic gold medal.

I would be given all the training I needed from the world's best coaches, in any sport that I chose, but I would never see my family again if I didn't get the gold medal.

I chose archery, had one session, where i couldn't even hit the board, and woke up in a cold sweat.

So, what you you choose, and do you really think you could get a gold, given 4 years solid to train?

You have four years to ride your bike whenever you please without disapproving noises from the family, and this is a nightmare?

Cougar,
I only [i]really[/i] enjoy riding my bike when I'm off road, on my own and it is night time.
I don't think there is a 'nocturnal anti-social mountain biking' event, but if there were, I'd be all over it.

Four years of doing nothing but shooting? I'd do that.

Whether I would win a gold or not is another matter, but I would do my damndest.

On a similar subject though, I had a dream last night that my wife had tried to stab me and was threatening to kill my dog if I didn't put down the phone and come out of the room I was in and face her. I can't remember if the police arrived before I did that, or if my dog survived.
