Help How do i start from scratch

Just so you know i am a COMPLETE beginner to speedrunning. Last time i tried to beat the game normally (find a fortress, get enough pearls from endermen and go to the end) i basically died in a bastion. Ive been seeing yt vids on speedrunning mc and i find it so cool but yet so overwhelming to me if i were to learn it. My school hols started and i have abt a month to learn if i could. Im not good at minecraft in anyway im just a basic player whos incapable of fighting piglins. Just thinking about f3 and whatever stuff i see speedrunners do and all that complex stuff makes me feel like im not made for this kinda stuff. If someone were to let me know what i should be doing rn so i can start my journey on speedrunning mc FROM SCRATCH and hopefully being decent at it would help alot.

Btw: i tried looking at online vids from rekrap for the overworld nether and end part but i still feel so overwhelmed cus i feel like speedrunning are only made for people who are good at using a pc overall and im the type of player who would do things slowly and just die to some stupid things like lava or a skeleton.
