800 Meter Running Test Calculator - Are You A Conditioned Athlete?

So, you think you're a conditioned athlete? Well, its time to take the 800 meter running test and find out just how "in shape" you really are. The main thing that makes the 800 so dreadful is that it is both a test of how fast you can run, and how far you can push yourself. The average 400 meter runner can run at nearly top speed for the entire race, and will probably not feel oxygen debt. This usually occurs for the 800 meter runner at about 600 meters, so the last 200 meters are really a test of who can push through the lake of lactic acid that is built up in your legs. All you need to do is run around a 400 meter track twice as fast as you can go and record the time. Good luck!
