    Jorb, depending upon your age, 181 bpm may be right for a 5k race (why are you bummed about that?) and your RHR (52 bpm) seems okay.

    I use the term RHR to mean, "Heart rate upon awaking in the morning before getting out of bed." Is that a valid definition on MFP?

    38/F, moderately active and average weight (BMI of 22)--RHR 65-70 (according to my Fitbit Charge HR, which is an average of daytime rest and sleeping HR).
