TL;DR

This was a short but hard run, with pace about 10% faster than your recent average while HR ran 14% higher than baseline. On a flat route you still averaged ~5:03/km (about 5:01/km GAP), so this was a quality effort rather than an easy one.

How it unfolded

You went out fast right away, dipping to about 4:40/km in the first 200 m, and HR jumped quickly into the high 170s and then 190s. After that, pace settled around 4:56-5:08/km through the middle, with a brief slowdown around 1.34 km before you recovered and finished more steadily near 5:01/km. HR stayed elevated throughout, with only a small drift upward overall, and the cool 10°C conditions likely helped keep this from feeling even harder.

Wins

Held a fast pace on mostly flat terrain: 5:03/km average, ~5:01/km GAP, despite 81% humidity and a breezy 13 km/h wind.
Strong finish after a fast opening: you started around 4:40/km and still closed with a late pickup near 5:01/km, showing decent resilience over a short effort.

Watch Outs

HR was very high for the distance: 82% of time in Z4-5 with a 194 bpm max, which is a big load for a run this short.
Back-to-back run plus a weekly volume spike increases injury/fatigue risk; monitor calves, Achilles, and quads over the next 24-48 hours.

Next Run

25-35 min easy recovery run on flat terrain - keep it strictly conversational (Z2, relaxed cadence) or take a rest day if legs feel flat after this high-HR effort.
