3 x 2 Miles Subtheshold + 1k Hard

I was planning to do 3-4 x 10' but the way my watch is set up it is hard to run by power and time, so I just used the autosplit and did 2-mile repeats with 75" recoveries. Felt decent if slightly fatigued in the legs. Not dead, just not a lot of snap or quickness. 

13:35: 6:47 @ 157 BPM @ 343W

13:30: 6:43 @ 159 BPM @ 347W

13:20: 6:37 @ 160 BPM @ 353W

Took a slow 2' jog and ran the loop hard @ 5:35 pace for 3'54". Finally took the segment KOM, though I think I still pulled up somewhat short as my lap pace was 5:35 and the segment pace was 5:45 I think.
