Depends on age. There are twentysomethings who could easily do it off no/never really excercised. After that good luck.
You have track experience so no problem. I would say you need very little ramp-up.

Probably. At age 16, I ran 8 miles my very first day out as a runner, and then 9 miles a day for the rest of the summer. So that was 100 km for my first running week ever, and I kept it up through the summer (800 miles or so, I recall) until cross country practice started. I then dropped my mileage (40-45 miles per week)to do what everyone else did in practice.
Not a chance, certainly not someone who is a total couch potato.
Yes, I'm sure it's possible for someone who is physically active and quite fit to begin with but just not done any running before.
I think the biggest problem is staying injury free though, you're going to be really pushing your body. Sounds a very demanding program, I wouldn't recommend it to any of my clients
