Today is sunday, racing this thursday, either 3200 or 800 to try to qualify for regionals in a second event. peak race is next thursday? what is a good peaking i could do tomorrow (monday) to prepare for my last race? i’m a 4:35 1600, 2:04 800, 10:09 3200 (don’t race it too often) but my main focus is the 1600
10x300 48-49s avg w 100 easy walk
you'll begin a rep every ~ 2.5'
start w 50s and close w 47
8-10x400m @ just faster than 1600m pace, 1.5x rest
5-6x600m @ 1600m pace, 1.75x rest
3-4x800m @ 1600m pace, 2x rest

My bad, I didn't read thoroughly enough to realize that your race was only a few days away :)
I like 12x200m @ 1600m pace or 1600m pace - 1, with 200 jog
Lots of rest and fast stuff!
It’s easier to do too much this close to your goal race than too little. 2 x 400m @ mile effort w/ 400m jog recovery, 4 x 200m @ 800m effort w/ 200m jog recovery should sharpen you up nicely and not take too much out of you. If you want to do/respond well to doing more, add a mile or 2 x 1k at tempo effort at the top of the workout with a 400m jog rest between that and the first mile effort 400, but at this point in the season you’re not gaining anything from that, per se—it’s just about how it makes you feel (both physically and mentally).
