You...started running 3 weeks ago...and you're running a fucking 5:43?!
Seriously, that's a damn good time.
Even more seriously, that's a stupid training program. Even assuming you're doing cross training, you should be varying the distance a bit, if by no other reason than running different routes. And you should NOT be going full-bore every single day. If you want the chance to go balls-to-the-wall, do it over about a half-mile in the middle of your run (assuming a 2 mile run). That's called a threshold run, and it can teach you to scald dogs and run down deer for your dinner. But you should still only do it 3 times a week - two if your racing and once if you're doing a fartlek or something.
Also I moved this to Tilted Life since that's more where it belongs, what with the new stuff over there and all.
