Runners have a slower heart rate because the act of running makes the heart stronger... with a stronger heart stroke volume is increased so the heart does not need to beat as much to fulfill its transportation needs

Why does a person heartbeat slow down when he or she is resting?
Because your body is at rest. Your heart rate rises when you are moving, exerting energy, exercising, etc. When you are at rest, that is your resting heart rate. If you have a fast heart beat while at rest, you may have high blood pressure or another heart issue. Exercising regularly can lower your resting heart rate. in other words: As the person is at rest you dont require so much energy, so as less energy is required the cells respire at a slower rate, as they respire at a slower rate they require less oxygen and glucose( which is carried in the blood) hence the heart pumps blood at a slower rate due to which the heart beat is slow.
