I have nothing to add on the running/riding front, and how to combine the 2. Maybe look to a tri training plan for a half iron, and sub extra biking for swimming?
However, I wanted to chime in and say that I think the ride is *completely* do-able from where you are, if you put in the base miles and train smart. It won't be easy, but I think it's a good challenge goal.
