adjustment

temperature(seconds, farenheit)

Used to adjust a running performance to having occurred at particular temperature. Potential farenheit values are:

  • 60
  • 65
  • 70
  • 75
  • 80
  • 85
  • 90
  • 95
  • 100

pace

hrSpeed(percentHR, vO2Max)

Calculates velocity (kilometers/hour) at a given heart rate percentage (in decimal form) at a given VO2Max (in mL/(kg•min)

hrPace(percentHR, vO2Max)

Calculates the pace (min/km) at given heart rate percentage (in decimal form) at a given VO2Max(in mL/(kg•min))

percentVO2(hrPercentage)

Converts a maximum heart rate percentage into a percentage of VO2Max based using the Swain conversion formula

SWAIN, D. et al. (1994) Target heart rates for the development of cardiorespiratory fitness. Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 26(1), p. 112-116

percentHrMax(vO2MaxPercentage)

Converts a VO2Max percentage into a maximum heart rate percentage using the Swain conversion formula

SWAIN, D. et al. (1994) Target heart rates for the development of cardiorespiratory fitness. Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 26(1), p. 112-116

vVO2Max(vO2Max)

Calculates velocity (kilometers/hour) at a specified VO2Max (mL/(kg•min))

velocity(vO2)

A regression equation relating VO2 with running velocity. Used in conjuction with the "vO2" equation to create the Jack Daniel's VDOT tables. Initially retrieved from "Oxygen Power: Performance Tables for Distance Runners" by Jack Daniels.

VO2 given in mL/kg/minute returns velocity in meters/minute

vO2(velocity)

a regression equation relating VO2 with running velocity. Used in conjuction with the "velocity" equation to create the Jack Daniel's VDOT tables. Initially retrieved from "Oxygen Power: Performance Tables for Distance Runners" by Jack Daniels.

velocity given in meters/minute returns VO2 in mL/kg/minute

Conditioning for Distance Running - the Scientific Aspects, 1978

vO2Percentage(time)

describes the percent of an individual's aerobic capacity the individual is capable of working at for a given duration.
time given in minutes (spent running) returns VO2 percentage in decimal form

easy(vO2Max)

Calculates the Easy / Long (E/L) pace(min/km) range for a given VO2Max(in mL/(kg•min). 60-79% of HRmax,used for recovery runs, warm-up, cool-down and long runs.

marathon(vO2Max)

Calculates the Marathon (M) pace(min/km) range for a given VO2Max(in mL/(kg•min). 80-85% of HRmax, primarily aimed towards runners training for the marathon.

threshold(vO2Max)

Calculates the Threshold (T) pace(min/km) range for a given VO2Max(in mL/(kg•min). 82-88% of HRmax, this intensity is aimed to raise the lactate threshold.

interval(vO2Max)

Calculates the Interval (I) pace(min/km) range for a given VO2Max( mL/(kg•min). 97-100% of HRmax, this intensity stresses the VO2max to raise the maximum oxygen uptake capacity
