I aimed to keep it around 1:58 and then speed up in the final 3 intervals. It was hard, but not terrible, which is evident from my heart rate not getting above 182. I felt it more in my arms and a little in my legs, rather than lungs. I will take 2 complete rest days now as I am starting to feel a bit fatigued. The old me would have powered through until something really broke down.
More gains! I am thinking about pacing these differently next time and hold a steady pace throughout. A constant 1:55 would be a much harder session than the one I am doing, since my split comes down a lot from the last 2 intervals, which are basically sprints and not aerobic.
