Nice.

I worded it incorrectly. When is the event? If you can get out and do intervals of 2/3/4x15'-7.5' at threshold with 7.5' rest between, then working up to 2 to 3x20' at threshold with 10" rest between, it sort of teaches one how to work that distance. A couple times a week. As said, pacing is the key, and knowing the course. The hilly part is always a treat, and I've always had an issue of wanting to rest on the downhill as opposed to keeping power down.
