Reply to comment by coffee_collection in Why does resting heart rate lower as people get fitter? by CanGroundbreaking814

Does a stronger heartbeat also require more elastic blood vessels so that they don't burst from the higher systolic blood pressure caused by a stronger heartbeat? Or does a stronger heartbeat just involve the same systolic blood pressure sustained over a longer time?

I run a lot and my resting heart rate is 48. My blood pressure has always been around 115/75
