Dear running researchers & exercise physiologists, I was wondering/I am asking:

- Is there a generally accepted protocol for investigating running economy with measuring oxygen consumption during sub-maximal running (with controlling speed, i.e. on a treadmill)?

- Specifically, how long would you have runners run in each condition (assuming you want to compare 3 to 4 different conditions) in order to prevent possible fatigue effects?

- Given they know their 10k race performance (e.g. 40 minutes), how fast would you ask them to run?

Looking forward to your well-informed input & responses!

Thanx,

Dieter...
