Abstract
Lloyd''s equation was applied to the calculation of record time in the 1500 meters foot race from .ovrhdot.VO2 max [maximal O2 consumption] in 28 healthy males. Record times decrease with increasing .ovrhdot.VO2 max. The theoretical curve plotted from Lloyd''s equation is consistent with this trend. The relationship between calculated record times (TRc) and measured record times (TRm) is highly significant (TRc = 74.3 + 0.7 TRm; r = 0.883; P < 0.001). These results validate Lloyd''s equation and hypothesis.
