I've done the beep test. I reached 12.8 when I took the test about 5 hours after doing a 7-mile training run (I was preparing for a marathon). I'm guessing that if I tapered specifically to take the beep test that I could do better. However, I agree with oc that you have to have the foot speed to keep up after a while, even though you may have the endurance to keep running. So, perhaps I wouldn't do much better....
The beep test is kind of fun (if you like running tests); IMO, it's not nearly as tiring/hard as many speed workouts that runners do.
