London Marathon Recap - Coaching Call with Sage and Sandi

London Marathon didn't quite go as I had hoped, and I finally sit down with my coaches to debrief and troubleshoot. The early elevated HR definitely signaled that something was wrong. What exactly it signaled, I'm still not sure. But we go over some things that it could have been that, either alone or taken as a whole, could help explain what went wrong.
