Anyone fast with only 1500-2000 yds a day?

Here's the deal. I can only swim 50 min to one hour a day, which equates to at most 2000 yards for endurance work and 1500 yards for faster interval work with more rest. I feel guilty when I read about other peoples yardage. Is anyone putting up some fast freestyle times with this little yardage? If so, what are the times? I really want to know.

    I'm doing about 2000 in about 52 mins. That's all the time I have, my goal for the new year is to swim 3 times a week lifting weights on Sat. Sometimes I just can't get a good swim in at the "Y" because the lap lane is full and the rest of the pool has all the kids in it for open swim. So I swim as much as I can, then work on turns and swimming under water for as long as possible then throw in some pool push ups and kicks. I figure I can always stand to work on the little things now and then.
