I've always had this problem where my shoulders get tired quicker than they do for most other swimmers. It must be something with my technique. Even an easy 200 for me is not a pleasant thing. Does anyone have any general idea on why this might be happening or tips?

You are most likely generating all of your power through your arms while your legs are not generating enough (or at all). I would try to concentrate on utlizing your kicks and balancing the work load a little more.
