Interval Training

I have a probably not so much of an original idea of using interval training with respect to ruck marching for getting prepared for selection. I know from personal knowledge that it does increase speed and endurance for running and swimming. My question is, does anyone think that it would work for ruck marching with any real effectiveness?
I did the training today, as an experiment, I used 45lbs(dry) and only did two sets( 10min @ 40%-50% then 10min @ 80%-90%). I understand that maybe I could extend my intensity time to 15min and maintain the 10min of rest. I'm trying to do baby steps here.
