- 6 minute time trial – to perform this test go to your local running track and warm up thoroughly. Then run for 6 minutes at the fastest pace you can maintain for the entire test. Try to cover as much ground as possible in those 6 minutes. You can now determine your vVO2 max using the following formula: distance covered in meters / 360 = meters covered per second. For example, if you covered1600 metersin 6 minutes then your vVO2 max would be 1600/360 =4.44 metersper second. To convert your meters per second pace to a400 meterpace divide 400 by meters/second. In this example the equation would be 400/4.44 = 90 seconds. Your pace would then be 90 seconds per400 meters. Since it is sometimes difficult to run at your best pace in a time trial, I would suggest doing this test three times over the course of a week. Your fastest pace in the three tests will be the most accurate pace.
- Estimate using 5K race pace – Here is an even simpler method. The vVO2 max of most runners will be at or very close to their 3K race pace. Most runners do not compete in 3K races so you can estimate your pace using your most recent 5K pace. Simply subtract about 20 seconds per mile from your 5K race pace. If your current 5K pace is 6:00 per mile your estimated vVO2 max pace is around 5:40 per mile.
