Yeah something is not right. Yesterday I rested. Today I went for what should have been a pretty normal easy run with the intention of beginning cycle on Tues. The long run on Sunday was around 10 BPM above where I thought i would be for that pace and distance.

-3 Aug13 Rest
-2 Aug16 6.75k 35:58 5:20 154/180
A few odd things about the run. The HR was up where I do 6x1k's yet my breathing was only still easy. I hit the 180 right at the end, I opened up into a sprint to see if my legs were tired, and they were not, in fact that's my highest ever recorded HR by 3 bpm. My Sprint finish was down to 3:10 pace and felt great. I have no cold, virus, or injuries. I slept well and ate well. It was warm but only 24c.
Checking back I can see I would have a HR of 145 at around 5:20 pace for 7km a few weeks ago on the same course. It's odd as I have had so much rest the last two weeks and I feel like I am running ok but my HR is higher.
Any thoughts?
