Hi! I am new to multisport races. I have a good base of fitness and lots of motivation but am not sure where to go from here, how to hammer out a training schedule, etc. I try to read about things and eventually get overwhelmed. I strength train. Cycling base is good. Running should come easy. Have not swam in years—am considering sticking with duathlons this year and working swimming in next off-season for next year—but am not decided. How do I put it all together in some useful sort of way? Ideally the “planning” will be the easy part so I can put the effort in the training. Help?

Want to avoid going mental on this.
