Intriguing / exciting. I think your PB is in a similar ballpark to mine (a bit sub 4) and the same idea has occurred to me (at London in my case). I need to do a few time trials while I still have the fitness.
(Consults recently constructed spreadsheet.) 4 min run @ 8 MM then 35 sec walk @ 10 MM equates to a 3:36 marathon, which is pretty damn tasty. But I don't know whether I can sustain those paces (or even achieve them in the first place, in the case of the walk).
