Hey guys - I don't know if I'm crazy or what, but I've signed up for a sprint triathlon in August - thus the training has begun! I'm sure I'll have many questions over the next couple months - especially with the swimming!
We're all crazy here, so you'll fit right in. August is definitely doable. I did my first round of training for a sprint race that was at the end of July last year and I started my training 8 weeks before that. Had been doing nothing up until that point. You're gonna do great.
