Quick update from me. I've been injury free for about 10 days now 
The bad news is my 5k time is not reducing (~18:55 & holding). I guess this is because I'm only running 3 times a week?
I was wondering if it made sense to continue on 3 days a week but run the easy runs @ the high end of aerboic instead of the low end (so ~160 instead of 140) to try to encourage some improvement in my legs.
The 6*1k went well this week, average 3:43. Felt strong throughout & my sprint finish saw my HR hit 190. I've struggled to get it over 185 so far this year.
