Rest meters include a lazy ten minute warmup.
Went out a bit slowly in terms of stroke rate and my legs (quads) just didn't have the endurance to push as hard as I did on the first few rounds. Even with falling off quite a bit, still almost averaged 5:45 per interval, which was what I guessed would be a reasonable goal. As I recall, almost getting to 5:40 across was the best I ever did, so some improvements are coming.
Legs are feeling a bit heavy, likely from no real off days and harder than normal steady state. I'll back off on the steady state and plan for an off day next Monday when we drive home.
