You are getting very fit. If you ran cross country and then, followed out Winter and spring program, you are getting awesomely fit. Make sure you are hydrating (8-10 glasses of water a day). Make sure you are eating vegetables, fruits, nuts, lean meats, good fish (sardines, anchovies, salmon, trout), and yes, you can do well as a vegan, just make sure you do tofu ( I love tofu sausages, tempeh and grilling tofu with curry power and olive oil). You have a mortal engine, power it well.
