40
That's my resting HR. Here's the science of HR training (for me):
Lactate Threshold runs: 152-170
Long Runs: 136-155
Recovery Runs: < 132
These numbers are based on Pete Pfitzinger's HR zone formula. Since I'm going to use the Pfitzinger method of training for my next marathon, I figured I'd research my numbers.
Now, I'm going for a long run wearing my heart rate monitor and I'm going to try to keep my heart rate between 136-155 bpm.

Later: 9 miles in 1:39:23. Avg. pace: 11:02. Avg. HR 151. 11:00 is about the average pace of my long runs anyway, so HR training is really just a reinforcement of what I've been doing. It did keep me from being tempted to pick up the pace.
