I used Joe Friel's Going Long: Training for Triathlon's Ultimate Challenge and Joe Friel's The Triathlete's training Bible Very in-depth books on how to set up a training plan and schedule your time.
Going Long by Joe Friel is a really good resource. I constructed my own plan using it, Start to Finish, Be Iron Fit and kind of structuring it off of half ironman training that I did with team in training that really worked well to prepare me for Wildflower. I highly recommend reading all of Going Long and Be Iron Fit. It might take you some time, but it's nothing compared to the commitment of training for an ironman.
I like http://www.amazon.com/Going-Long-Triathlons-Challenge-Multisport/dp/1934030066/ref=cm_lmf_tit_2 and then i have a sport nutrition book i forgot the title off. It's very scientific, most people fall asleep reading past page one and it has quite a few pages. I link it once i get home. The rest is online and experience. I use myself as guinea pig so i get a lot from that too.
