Definitely maintain speedwork during the winter. Don't need to keep high mileage, in fact it's probably healthier not to - it does depend how your body responds to different kinds of training load. If you already have a decent mileage base, just try adding one or two sweetspot sessions per week and take note of any impact it has on your longer distance stuff - are you feeling stronger after a few weeks or is it having a negative impact? If it's the latter, try with one session per week, if it's the former, cool, keep at it.
