Thanks for the replies, and sorry for not being clear.  All tests were done on separate days over a 7 day period.  The 2 AeT/drift tests were done first thing in the morning following an easy day of training, and after breakfast/before work or other training.   It was just the AnT test that was done on a day involving a 2 hour easy morning run and 9 hours of working on my feet.    Wouldn’t retesting my AnT better rested only serve to further exaggerate the difference between AeT and AnT?

I didn’t think to retest at a higher starting HR, as the first drift test with a starting HR in the low 150s got a nearly exactly 5% difference between the first and second 30 minutes (156 to 164), and the 2nd one seemingly confirmed that, but it can’t hurt to see.
