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?

200 LCM is my objective for end January 2012 but I am struggling mentally and physically about how to get there - so any suggestions on strategy and training for middle aged fat ladies would be welcomed
On the 100m I had to glide like anything to survive it, and was such a wreck by the end that I needed to be hoisted out. I have no doubt that if it had been in a 25m pool then I would have given up at one of the turns. Sadly the next time I will get a go in a 50m pool will be at the event itself
Accordingly I wonder if the better gameplan is to try and focus on the 100m and get it to the very best I can for January and do it well - then I may be able to step up to the 200
All views most welcomed ( taking into account my middle aged - fat position status etc)
