OK .. I shall work my way through the data
yes, athletes do train that often, some train twice a day and then you get the elite who train 3 times a day
the most important part of the cycle is day 3 to day 8 .. so if you able to adapt to that workload then it would be beneficial
we can change the program around to adapt to you however you need to provide feedback to see how the adaptation is going
90 = Rest time .. 7 min 50 = 3.55 x 2
T stands for 10k session
the 10 x 400m session is prescribed to be run on a tartan track if possible .. do the pace accordingly and not faster .. p = 3k pace
now your pace from the 5k run would be better off for you to consider starting at 4.10 to 4.15 per k for the 2k session
5 x 2k Rest 90 seconds .. pace = 8.20 to 8.30 per 2k
6 x 1k Rest 60 seconds .. pace 4 minutes to 4.15 per k
400m pace = 3.50 to 3.55 per k per 400m 92 to 94 seconds
hope this is clear and easy to understand

On the training programme, is states 3 runs (Day1,2,3) and then one day of rest, then back on daily for 6 days before rest again? Is it normal to run this often?
On the interval, start with 5x2k R90 7min 50 (3.55 per k) T ( I may be a bit slow but dont fully understand this) im guessing 5 intervals of 2k, with a pace of 3.55 a k, Is 90 the rest time? but whats the 7min 50? or is this the rest period. But then using this same for Day 15
start with 10 x 400m R 60 400/86sec ââ¬â no faster P Not fully aware of what this fully means?
