This may be an interesting topic. Very good to improve running economy. I am on my third week of doing it and hope that this will make some good improvements to my racing.
has anyone experienced great success doing this?

I regulary do Plyo and HIIT circuits at the gym. I run 2-3x a week usually and managed to train for a HM in a short space of time, which I put down to the benefits of polyo/strength circuits... I definitely felt stronger anyway. Great post0
