Just wondering how fast some of you can swim...

I am fairly slow as I am just a 45 year old lap swimmer who has had no real technique training. On a good day I can do ONE 50 meter lap in about 39-40 seconds (based on the big second hand clock at the pool). On my normal lap swim I do about 50 laps (2500 meters) in 1 hour, which is an average of 70 seconds per 50 meter lap.
