Hey everybody, can you give me your thoughts on what is a good time for:
450 yard swim:
12 Mile Bike:
3 Mile Run:

so far i got 9 minutes for the swim and 26 minutes for the run. I know i need to get that down, but what should i be aiming for?

Also what is the average weight for a triathalete? I weigh 210 pounds and i'm more into lifting weights than triathalons.

9 Minutes for the swim will likely put you at the back of middle of the pack
For the bike 35 minutes is 20mph, 45 is 16 mph.
26 minutes is an 8:40 mile and sounds respectable given your size.
HTH!
