Your metabolism is based on how efficiently your body tissues process nutrition and so your metabolism should be great. If you're asking about causality, running more can improve your metabolism, but having a high metabolism rate does not mean you will be an excellent runner. I am an endomorph and my metabolism is naturally really bad, but after a couple years of training, I've become a pretty good runner and my metabolism has improved. I have friends though who have excellent metabolism but are terrible runners. You need stamina to run, not a good metabolism.
A heart rate of 38 beats per minute (bpm) can be normal in a well-trained endurance runner at age 60. The heart rate normally lowers at rest. And distance running over four years could cause a reduction in resting heart rate from 60 bpm to 38 bpm. am a 60-year-old runner and Iâve been running for about four years now. My resting heart rate used to be 60 bpm (beats per minute). Last year in my prime shape after running four marathons in four months, I had a resting heart rate of 38 bpm.
