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?

And the best way not to get better at something is to not do it -OR the best way to get better at something is to do it.. So just do it already! And like so many things - the first year is the best because you see such incredible improvement! Have fun on your masters team!
