Distance butterfly

I am a distance swimmer and like most distance swimmers can swim freestyle for a very long time. Again, like most distance swimmers, what I cannot do is swim the butterfly for any great length. While I am a pretty good butterfly swimmer for a short length, even a couple of laps leaves me gasping. Now, distance butterfly is becoming a bit of the rage. This WSJ article covers this phenomenon and even has some video of a distance butterfly swimmer going for it.
