You're too fucked to train properly after too.
IMHO.
- you need to know the correct targets for intervals of various lengths.
- you need to know pacing figures for your chosen event.
- you need to know the fatigue effect of your training.
If I feel I have the above knowledge. I'd definitely drop testing on a 'fresh day' in exchange for training.

Ah, glad to hear you say this. I don't really test much anymore (only when coach tells me to, which is rare) - I know where I am and clearing enough time to be fresh for them seems like a good way of wasting half a week of training.
