Sounds like you already know what to do, 30s hard hill efforts or almost-all-out-sprints (90-95% efforts) will see you go anaerobic. Be sure to take the recoveries really easy.
I've been doing more speed work recently and have been following the speed sessions put together by some coaches at a local athletics club. I can't make the sessions but know someone who does who feeds them on to me. Things like pyramids (2x1 min, 2x2min, 2x3min, 2x2min, 2x1min) and mixed tempo/hard efforts (3x[3min hard/3min tempo], 5min easy, 2x[2min harder/2min tempo], 2 min easy, 4x[100m HARD, 30m easy]).
