work out plan

Hi there folks, Danny here. I'm a budding triathlete... well, not really any more, i guess. I did my first triathlon last week. it was a sprint triathlete, and not only finished with a smile on my face, i did it in 1:21:05. very happy with those results.
but my training wasn't as focused as it could have been. i swam, bike, and ran about once a week, and strength trained once or twice a week, and a brick work out one every other week.
but here is my thing: i have a very strange schedule. i'm a power plant operator, and i'll work 3-4 night shifts, 2-3 days off, 3-4 day shifts, a few days off. but i've decided to make it work for me. coming of of night shifts i like to work out to help reset my internal clock and flip back on days. on days off, i'm going to try and do two-a-days.
So here is my current work/exercise schedule. if there is a time listed with the work out, it is either because those are the pool hours, the class hours, or the work out session with my tri-club. a "P" marker means that i go in that night at 6pm, and get out the next morning at 6am.
Any advice or pointers would be more than welcomed.

I like that you are pushing yourself to greater heights.
One must never allow himself to peak out. Always strive for something more challenging.

thanks man. it's so easy to get complacent, so i want to make sure i keep my intensity up, while also not burning myself out.0
