Do four sets of single track Kenyan hill repeats.

Run up as hard as you can and run down at race pace. Only time the up part of each repeat. Start the next repeat as soon as you reach the base of your hill again.
Each set consists of hill repeats of 1min; 2min; 3min; 2min; 1min. The “rest” between each set is 5min running on a flat path at your aerobic threshold pace.
