Keep your head down and rotate your hips to cut down on the drag. Arch is right about getting a feel for the water and grabbing a lot of water with your stroke. Complete your stroke also, don't short arm it. I worked like hell for three years and the best I could do was a 28 minute mile. Good luck.
