Afraid of Masters Swimming

I want to work on improving my swimming to hopefully do a triathlon. I am really a lousy swimmer. I'm always the slowest person in the pool. My endurance is fine from running etc., but my strokes/form are terrible. Everyone says masters swimming programs are the best workouts, but I don't want to go near one because I would lag behind even the oldest, most out of shape members. What should I do?

    Everyone does what they can of the workout (I rarely finish the entire thing) without concerning themselves with who is faster or who finished first. Everyone has different goals. I wasn't able to finish sets and workouts. I set myself some achievable goals and with each month, I noticed an improvement. I suggest you do the same. You won't be holding anyone back but yourself.
