Hi /u/murphalicious55, I'm not sure if I am in any position to give advice, since I've been swimming for a small period of time.
These are the things that I did:
1.- Swim more. I go to the pool 4 times a week, and I average around 2500yd per session.
2.- No lollygagging in the pool. I use to swim with a team of Triathletes, but I found that I tend to socialize more when other people are around, and I would take very long breaks at the wall. When I'm alone, I just keep on doing my own thing.
3.- I bought a book. I bought this book and it's companion workout book. Really good information.
4.- I have a friend that has been a swimmer since he was a kid, he is a very competitive Age Grouper in Ironman 70.3 races, he's usually 1st or 2nd out of the water. About 2 times a month he comes to the pool with me and shows me some drills, and also takes a look at my stroke and tries to correct it.
I'm planning a 3 month swimming block that will begin in October, and I will concentrate on the swim and see if I can reach my goal of swimming 25min for the 1500m swim in an Olympic Tri. That's a 1:31/100yd pace (1:40/100m).
