Runners, Show off your resting HR
That's right, what's your resting HR? Go ahead, show off!
I'm a new runner and mine was 56 in bed this morning. That's not bad is it?

Mine is about 60. FWIW, I wouldn't consider myself a super-conditioned runner, but I'm definitely in better shape than most of my friends. I probably would have a lower resting pulse rate if I wasn't such a big fan of caffeine.

just after I wake up in the morning, still lying in bed, I usually get 50-55 HR. I'm not a runner though.
It would be more if I tried to take it at some random times I'm sitting down throughout the day.

I take a decongestant as needed this time of year for my sinuses (maybe every 2-3 days) I wonder if it would be a little lower without that in my system.

I just checked mine right now and it is at 42. I don't check often and have never remembered to first thing in the morning.

42 is incredible, especially since it wasn't even when you first woke up!
Mine is in the very low 50s.

mine is 43-44. I check it every other morning to watch for signs of overtraining.

when you are measuring a heart rate that low it is better to just do it for the whole minute!
