Is a blood pressure of 130 over 50 good or bad?
Assuming that you are an adult, a blood pressure of 130/50 is neither perfectly normal nor completely abnormal. Your systolic blood pressure (top number) is just on the borderline of pre-hypertension (early high blood pressure). In addition, your diastolic blood pressure (bottom number) is quite a small fraction of your systolic, which can sometimes be a marker for hardening of the arteries. However, a single blood pressure measurement can be affected by a number of things, such as time of day, recent activity, and any medications you may be taking. Therefore, one reading will not give you a truly accurate picture. Your best bet would be to measure your blood pressure after sitting still for 5 minutes and to record it several times per day; you can then bring these numbers to your doctor to get a better picture.

Why is my diastolic Blood pressure higher than my systolic Blood pressure?
Systolic pressure increases during exercise because the heart activity is greater (heart is beating faster). Since heart rate is increased (as well as respiration (breathing) probably too), pressure increases with it to help increase oxygen flow both to the hear and the break and the body so it takes longer for lactic acid to build up. Diastolic pressure should either remain the same or even decrease due to vasodilatation (width increase in veins) in the exercising muscles.
