You should be able to hit at least 50wpm pretty quickly with Colemak (in a matter of weeks).
I think the best advice is to focus on accuracy and practice typing as much as possible. Download amphetype from here:

Here is the authors description (a Colemak user called tristesse):
"Amphetype is a layout-agnostic typing program aimed at people who don't need an on-screen keyboard, but would still like to improve their speed and accuracy."
Use the left pinkie for left Shift and right pinkie for right Shift. For the Control keys I lift my hands off the home row because they are not easy to reach.
