Well, I hope it's just the time of day, my loss of 20 lbs, and the fact that I'm running 2x as much.  During my college days it was always 55-60 (played baseball).  The last few years it has been high 50's, low 60's.  Not once do I remember dipping into the 40's, so hopefully it's been the increase running.

That is most likely the reason, Dave.  I know my RHR is about 10-15+ beats per minute higher if I haven't been working out for a while.

Question for everyone... is it true that lower heart rates can be negative too? I thought I heard on Disc. Health CHannel that since your heart is stronger it can pump more blood with less beats, but is this bad? i.e. does it contribute to plaque buildup and stuff? And I thought I heard somewhere that Lance Armstrong is at risk too since he has an enlarged heart. Do all runners get enlarged hearts? or just elites.

For someone who is not a trained athlete, heart rates like those listed on this thread are abnormal and not good (the medical term is bradycardia). You go to a new doctor and they take your pulse without asking your history, they probably start panicking.

As for me, I've had a very hard time getting an accurate RHR number, but I don't think it's much below 60, certainly not in the 40s.

Yesterday 37! Lowest I think I've ever seen it. Typically about 10-15 higher.

42-44 at the ripe old age of 50.  Was 38-40 just 5 years ago and 36 in high school, but I understand that your resting rate goes up with age.

It's interesting your resting heart rate goes up since they say your max heart rate goes down.
