You have the bike and helmet that's a good start

Good luck figuring all that out. I have done few and have learned some things the heard way and from asking. If I may...( ok I will anyway

Get the shoes asap but only after you have done some real running and biking Why?/ Because your feet will swell and get bigger the longer you train and if you buy a size to small you will ride home one day with your foot out of the shoe because your feet hurt so much
yes I was laughing at myself the whole way home.
Also go easy on the wetsuit you don't need the most $$ just one that works, remember they don't last forever and soon you will be buying another. If you train mostly in a pool you might to see if you can rent one for the events and save some cash.
