Many first timers are "completers" rather than "competers"
Yeah I do appreciate my targets should be:
- Get to start line fit
- Get to finish line
- Get to finish line in target time
in that order.
I'm going to continue with my 3 runs a week schedule for the time being and start building the LSD runs up slowly. The other two runs are normally tempo (5 min intervals) or speed work (500m intervals) so I will need to alter those as time progresses too.
Thanks all for the advice.

Build from where you're at shouldn't be a huge problem, just keep it sensible. Many first timers are "completers" rather than "competers" so first timers plans are geared towards that goal.
