Maximum Aerobic Speed test

With help of the MAS-Test (Maximum Aerobic Speed) you can establish and periodically adjust your training zones defined in heart rate and speed, as well as estimate your expected times for selected races.

Perform a thorough warmup for at least 20 minutes. Then you clock your time to cover 2000m. This is best done on a 400m track, but can also be done on a flat road stretch provided you can accurately measure and mark 2000m (a bicycle fitted with a speedometer might achieve this). If you can run 2000 meters under 7:30, please run 3000m (at your next test). Run the first 4 laps at what you perceive to be 90% of your maximum possible speed and force to 100% on the last lap. Sanity check: you need to be at least as fast as on the first. Please also note your maximum heart rate at the end of the test, or just read the max data saved by your heart rate monitor and enter it in the field below. The MAS test lets 2PEAK determine the intensities for your intervals. We can also predict your times for longer races.
