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

  • 104 is a good time from the 108. did you like your form? For the most part, I did. It broke down on the last ~10 yards when I stupidly did a 4 stroke no-breather finish, but it felt great up until then. I don't have any video of the race to crosscheck, but it felt like I was keeping my upper body low in the water and my hips up, and kept a good rhythm throughout. I'm doing the 100 fly again at a much faster pool the week after Thanksgiving, so I'm hoping for a 1:02 or so, which would be a normal March/April time for me. I'll see if I can get someone to record that race so I can see if the reality matches how it feels.
