TL;DR

This was a controlled easy run with a strong negative split, and it came in a bit slower than your recent average pace while using less heart-rate effort. On rolling terrain, the ~5:53/km raw pace was roughly ~5:49/km GAP, so the effort was a touch better than the pace suggests.

How it unfolded

The run started conservatively, with the first few kilometers hovering around the mid-6:20s to 6:30s/km while heart rate settled in the low-to-mid 130s. You then found rhythm in the middle, dipping into the 5:20s to 5:30s/km range, and despite a brief spike around 2.6 km your finish stayed controlled and faster than the opening split. With 13°C feels-like 9°C and a steady wind, the conditions were runnable but still enough to make the pace look a bit slower than the underlying effort.

Wins

Negative split: you finished faster than you started, which is a sign of good control and late-run strength.
Effort stayed mostly aerobic: 93% in Z2 with avg HR 141 bpm, well below your recent 155 bpm average despite the hills and wind.

Watch Outs

HR drift was +8%, so even on a shorter run the effort crept up later; keep an eye on hydration, warm-up, and pacing on the next outing.
Cadence at 82.5 spm looks low for a run at this pace, so monitor whether this reflects stride length, terrain, or a sensor issue.

Next Run

7 km steady easy run on flat-to-rolling terrain, keeping it conversational and slightly more even from start to finish; aim to hold HR in upper Z1/Z2 and avoid surges on climbs.
