That is good. That is a 1:34 100yd pace. What I did recently was post my 50,100,200,500,1000. I got alot of good feedback where I need work and what to do about it. If your 100 is slow, then maybe doing some higher intensity can bring down your 1000 time even more.

I'm not an expert but that sounds pretty good to me. That's 1.50 per 100yds I would think that's a pretty good pace... good job!!!

I`m 55 years old,.my knees are shot, so at my doctors advise I took up swimming 4 years ago. Last week I swam 1000 yards,.non-stop in 15 min. 40 seconds. That sounds REALLY good to me. I don't have a time for a 1,000, but I did a SCY 500 in 8:07.34 about 5yrs ago (in my early 40's). So I'd say you're doing great!

About 4 years ago, at age 32, I did the 3000 postal and averaged 15 min per 1000 so I'd say you are doing great. Alison
