I've just added swimming to my fitness routine. I am a relatively fit 40 year old who generally walks and rides a bike. After 3 non-sequential days of swimming, I timed a 100 yard freestyle swim (in a 25 yard pool) at 1:41.
It's hard to say what average is because it is so affected by age and endurance. A time of less than a minute is a sign that a young person has an efficient stroke. A time less than 52 seconds good time for high school swimmer, although a time of less than 48 seconds is needed for consideration as a High School All American. A time of less than 42 seconds is needed to reach the finals of the NCAA division one championships.
For a fitness swimmer, being able to consistently swim below 1:30 or 1:40 is very solid depending on one's age.
Hi I'm 15 year old and I'm a freshmen in high school. I just started swimming and I've been doing it for 2 months. My 100yd time is 1:15 in a 25yd pool. It all depends on your age and your fitness ability. So i say your time is pretty good for that age.

It really depends on the person and how long they have been swimming. I'd say anything less than 1:35 is acceptable.
