I saw a huge decrease in HRV the week prior to the Boston Marathon. I attribute it to mental stress and anxiety about the race (and also poor sleep); however, I was able to do well in the race, setting a PR by over 5 minutes. In the weeks since the race, my HRV #'s are at the upper range, showing a strong recovery.
