As I said before I'm new at this and I have no idea what an "average" time for a mile would be. Right now I do a non-stop mile (1600 meters) in about 40 minutes. What would be a resonable time for a 48 year old in good good shape? I'm looking for a realistic goal.
pretty slow
that's 2:15 / 100 pace
work on dropping your pace by 5 sec / 100
when you reach that drop 5 more (repeat process till you get stuck)
read Swim Faster Faster
there's many areas you could correct to swim faster
begin with technique and conditioning
you should improve rapidly
