I cannot fault the sessions you are doing, The fact that things are getting faster tells its own story. Being uncomfofatble on longer runs is also a symptom of being more comfortable at speed than running slowly.

We do need to work on the 300s at top speed. You can run 25 or better for 200 so 39 is not good enough for your ability. I am sure that it will only take a few sessions to shft it. But allow much more recover 7 mins is too short and will reduce the speed and the TOTAL. If you rest more you might get a 4th or even 5th under 40. You need this volume to train the enzymes properly at speed. Just try to make the first and second ones whilst you are fresh as fast as you can each time

But you can do a good session of 5 or 6 x300 in 42/43 with 7 mins rest.

Also for very high speed and training the creatine phosphate ystem reduce the 150s on the track to 80 to 110m. It needs to be ideally under 12//13 seconds or otherwise the red box chemistry in each run has some lactate in it and the DNA will not make the pure CP change for speed we need.
