שאלות נפוצות

What is running economy?

Running economy is how much oxygen, and therefore energy, you use to run at a given speed. This calculator takes your VO₂, speed and body weight to express economy in ml/kg/km and energy cost per kilometre, showing how efficiently you run.

How do I calculate running economy?

Enter your measured oxygen uptake (VO₂), your running speed and your body weight. The tool normalises oxygen use to your weight and the distance covered, producing ml/kg/km so you can compare efficiency across runners and training phases.

What does good running economy look like?

Better economy means using less oxygen for the same pace, so lower ml/kg/km values are more efficient. Trained distance runners tend to be more economical than beginners, and improvements come from training, technique and reduced wasted motion.
