Abstract
Abstract The relationship between max VO2, as predicted by the Astrand Bicycle Ergometer Test, and 1/2-mile, 1-mile, 12-min. run, and 5-mile running performances has been investigated. The subject population included representatives from three diverse ability subgroups of college males: (1) non-athletic students; (2) physical education majors; and (3) varsity cross-country runners. Within the composite group (N = 34) the relationship between estimated oxygen uptake (ml/kg/min) and 12-min. run performance was r = .63. Among the ability subgroups the predicted oxygen uptake-performance relationship decreased as a function of increasing performance capabilities. Conversely, this same relationship sequentially increased as a function of distance.
