I'm already doing speed work & intervals as part of the marathon training 6 x 1 mile, 8x1k, 10x800, 16x400 etc... - I'll carry on with the speed work, and cut out the long runs.
By my reckoning, by the time I'm knocking out 6 x 1mile @ 3:50, I'll be comfortable running a sub-20, so I just need to find 15 seconds per km for a mile.
It would be nice to find a track that has few enough people on it to allow for running the wrong way round occasionally - I'm sure that running the bends is doing me no favours at all.
