Awesome.
But...
swimming is better for weight loss if you swim continuously as fast as you can without needing to stop. Also, quit with the fins. If swimming without assistance is too hard (?!) then grab a kickboard and do kick laps. Making the kick easier is doing nothing for you. If you need to make it easier, give the arms and the upper body a rest.
.... for a fit adult a freestyle 50 shoulld take around thirty seconds. ten of them is 5 minutes. you needed 25 minutes rest during that 30 minutes? Srsly? Not criticising, but trying to help. Swimming, I do know stuff about.
Sore halfway down the back? That's the fins, I reckon. When you rotate with the stroke, the fins are going to make your legs resist, causing your body to twist uncomfortably. Your upper torso should be rotating through almost 90 degrees with each stroke, your legs follow. If there is resistance, that's gonna hurt.
Swim aids are for training, not sprinting.
