12 km with 2 x 5 min @ 20 km pace

I was feeling the effects of a pretty intense workout yesterday so I decided to take it easy today. I was slightly pushed for time so had an incentive not to be too slow.

I was surprised to find I was averaging around 6:45 even though my pace felt easy. I started one fast leg at the 2.5 km mark into a light wind. At the 6 km mark was average pace was 6:39 but I was tiring. My second fast leg was from the 8 km mark.  I managed maintain a reasonable pace to the end for an overall time of 1:20:59, average pace 6:45 and average HR 148 bpm. I was pleased with this and felt my form was good but I'm feeling quite tired now!
