Butterfly, beautiful to watch, difficult to train.
We SDK off every wall.
We're most likely to smack hands with each other and those beside us.
Fly's fun to sprint but no fun when the piano comes down
What did you do in practice today?

I prefer to kick for endurance on fly (fly is a leg driven stroke).
It is true that, once your legs are gone, you are toast in fly. But lately I've been thinking that---more than in the other strokes---in (distance) fly you really are only as good as your weakest link. For example:
If you can't lift your arms above the water at the end of the race, you're done.
If you can't finish your stroke at the end of the race, you'll be going up/down instead of forward and you're done.
