In practice tonight we swam our first one mile swim. I clocked in at 35:40 and I know that I could have gone faster, but was afraid to push myself too hard because I had never swam that distance before. I'm wondering what a good/average time is for a one mile swim. Thanks! :)

1:40 average per 100 would be good. It is really relative to you, but that time would get you in the top half of most swims.
