normal resting pulse

Is it normal for my resting pulse to be around 100 but when im asleep its in the upper 40's. I also have ADHD. But if I run 1.5 miles at 8 minutes/mile it only goes to 140

Re: normal resting pulse
that's interesting. do you regularly test your HR while you sleep? a resting HR of 100 would be incredibly unhealthy. i also doubt that a HR would change that much with the only difference being sleeping/awake.

Re: normal resting pulse
i'm wondering if it's even possible to have a RHR that high with a BP that low. why do you check your HR and BP so much? unless you have a CV condition that you have to be concerned about (which might keep you from running in the first place), there isn't much reason to check them so often.

Re: normal resting pulse
Maybe I've been wrong all these years, I thought that the definition of resting pulse WAS your pulse rate while sleeping (or very relaxed). Under what conditions did you determine that your "resting pulse" was 100?
