Low 50's for me too. It can drop below 50 from time to time but usually pretty steady. I've given up tracking now.

Usually 55 - 60 bpm
BP was 120/60 last time it was measured.
Reasonable for a 65 yr old.

At absolute rest, laying on the sofa watching a film, not moving for 2 hours, as low as 38. Normal just pottering about the house, low 50's. Running, mid 130's. Never had an especially quick ticker.

BP 117/67 last time I had a regular BP test, as opposed to one in hospital pre or post op full of drugs etc.

Mine is now usually mid to late 50s when I was running about ten years ago it was around 48. The best measure for fitness level is to readpulse once stopped exercising and compare it one minute later to see how many beats it drops. 30 is a must and 50 beats is very good, so it use to be said on the running forum.
