I've never been under 50, so I was wondering where this would go. Pretty soon I hit 48, 45, 44. When the HR showed 34 I figured something might be wrong.

I think I need a new battery in the transmitter.
I read in a couple of sources that Tour de France Multi-winner Miguel Indurain had a resting heart rate of 28--unbelievable.
