• How are my training paces and vVO2max calculated?

  RunMotion Coach estimates your fitness level from your race results and some of your workouts. From this, it works out your vVO2max (your speed at VO2max), your endurance and your personalized training paces. These paces are shown as figures in each session (e.g. 50 min at 6:00/km) and can be synced with your watch. Your paces aren't set in stone: they'reFew readers
