My commute with power (just purchased a quarq)this morning at zone 3 left me arriving at work feeling fresh at only 5 and half minutes slower than my quickest commute time, which is an absolute smash-fest that leaves me feeling shite
You could also have heaps of aerobic power from your higher Z2/3 mileage and correspondingly little anaerobic power on top of that base.

I'll tell you what i find annoying/pleasing about training with a PM (you can argue that after only 3 rides i am hardly (yet) 'training with power' ).....
My commute is 25 miles each way, and i ride steady on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays to build up the TSS, and use weekends to put the structure in (it also means i spend more time with my daughter/family whilst i get early training in on the turbo).

Its quite clear that previous 'quick' commutes must see me all out on hills etc, but crawling along in recovery mode in other sections...... I've never really paid attention to anything but time.
