Hi derele and welcome to the forums
first off, coming down to 37 minutes for 10km would allow me to say there is a very definite opportunity to achieve sub 35 minutes
the number one thing to mention now is that we should first get the marathon behind you and you should be in no rush to get back to training for a fast 10km but then this will be determined by you recovery
as for your recovery, in the 'old' days it was always consider best to reverse the last 14 days on your count down to the marathon. So depending on what this routine is, you could likely reverse it as a recovery
once you return from the marathon I shall work with you to incorporate the sub 35 minute 10km program comfortably
the program actually does allow for doubles as well as longer long runs but we only incorporate such things after the athlete has gone through a few cycles and then does the build up program
the major reasoning behind this is to avoid injuries as well as know that the athlete has achieved consistent training using the cycles correctly
take a look at the program tips for mentioning of the am runs
good luck for the marathon and chat soon
