The Butterfly Lane

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? the breastroke lane The Middle Distance Lane The Backstroke Lane The Butterfly Lane The SDK Lane The Taper Lane The Distance Lane The IM Lane The Sprint Free Lane The Pool Deck

  • Thanks for your YouTube comment on my 1,000 fly video! And, thanks for your suggestion here. Sprint fly is definitely out for me! C,mon Elaine. You are twice the butterflier than I am. You can do ten sprints of butterfly and do it mucho prettier than me. You obviously have the fitness to do them without injury.. Give it a go! I am impressed that you do sprint days on all four strokes. That's awesome. :bighug: Awww, geee, thanks, Yosemite! :smooch: I have competed in 50 fly; my best time is a :39+. It's a slow time and I only enjoy swimming it as part of a sprint pentathlon or when it's a filler event, in between my core events. Sprint fly frustrates me, because the faster I swim fly, the more my arms whip out the back end too high and crash down in front. My flaws all come back to haunt me! :afraid:
