Pick up a copy of Gale Bernhardt's "Training Plans for Multisport Athletes". It got me through my
first sprint and Olympic races and covers most of the basics well enough to get you going.
Next year, after you get the tri bug and have a better idea of what you're capable of, you'll want
to add Joe Friel's "Triathlete's Training Bible" to your library.
In preparation for reading Friel's book in the future, keep detailed records of your workouts /
times / etc. this year. I'm also new to the sport, and am reading TTB right now. It's going to be
very helpful....after I have at least a years worth of training and racing data to build
schedules on.
