Here are my previous thoughts about that plan.

Love your optimism 
Legs hurt more than they did, but not as much as they’re going to

Day 4 Giro d’Italia Donne 1 is done. The climb on lap 5 hurt a bit, the final 4 min 30 effort a lot more. Post ride sauna was definitely a good idea.
According to my spreadsheet that’s about 28% of TSS for the 14 days completed.
Slight trepidation for Hammer Climb tomorrow

…I mean, 28% you say? Interesting.
Maybe just move everything into the sauna? Save some time.

Day 5 Hammer Climb done. Glad to see the back of this one.
I’d like to have a chat with the idiot who thought this was a good idea, but apparently he’s not available until 10/12

You’d have to go back and do Days 1-4 again though so…

That’s where you’re potentially mistaken. I can just head to the reality where I said ‘nope’ and tried out that couchlandrian training plan instead

Hahaha. Sure…maybe…but I think the minions would mess with that reality and you’d be doing it all over again, and again…

Day 6 Strade Bianchi 1 is done. Love this pro ride.
Was expecting to find the first 14 minute climb harder than it was this morning and was grateful for a shorter stage.
Amazingly still at 100%, but no, I’m not doing FF this afternoon 
Now back on the bus and heading to Ventoux tomorrow

Thanks for the advice on higher cadence. Definitely helped

Day 7 completed and Mount Ventoux conquered and on my way to Australia for tomorrow.
Officially half way through, although 57% based on saddle time makes me feel closer to the end than I am.

isn’t officially halfway really 70% of the way like in a Knighthood or is it cuz you’re doing this as a Tour halfway is actually halfway? Also, this is an out and back tour right 
?

Driver got a bit lost this morning and did Tour Down Under 1 rather than 2. All going well until the final sprint when I failed at the last 7 seconds.
Really didn’t deserve the 3rd place 
Have struggled on the final sprint previously but just hung on with fresh legs so wasn’t surprised
