My longest dive to date is 123 minutes. During my full cave course, we swam up Peacock Spring's Peanut tunnel to the end of the gold line (a little over 1900 ft), just past the restriction, then swam back, stopping here & there to do a few drills on the way back. Dove double 108's. None of us in the class hit 3rd's on the way in until we reached the turn around point.
 
25 dives in, and my longest (on a 12L faber) is 42 minutes (was a 9m dive)

yes, i am an air pig :(

Don't stress, your air consumption will drop the more experienced you become :) Mine dropped by over half, and it dropped massively after I did a weight check (dropped 10lb), so maybe check your weight too.

In the meantime you could try hiring bigger tanks.

i only carry 12lb when diving wet (in a 7/5 semi-dry) and 18lb when dry.

my LDS is gonna lend me a 15L tank and i am working on my fitness, so together i might get a limttle more time :D
