I would suggest picking a race or two to really test yourself, proper taper and all that stuff. Use most of the others as training without a tape rand you will be surprised at how well you still do but you get the experience of racing.

I really don't enjoy cycling, and am a pretty new swimmer, so open water scares the heck out of me. Running would be my favorite part.
I still click and read, because I want to get to the point of actually signing up and training for one. (Once I get over the cycling thing... oh, and become a more confident swimmer too.)
If I can do it you can, just gotta take baby steps. Honestly, the progress and meeting the little goals is as much fun as the races themselves.0
