title: [Relation between maximal oxygen consumption and the record time in the 1500-meter run. Analysis of Lloyd's model].
abstract: Lloyd's equation (Lloyd, 1967 b) has been applied to the calculation of record time in the 1 500 meters foot race from VO2 max. Twenty-eight healthy male subjects participated in this investigation. Record times decrease with increasing VO2 max. The theoretical curve plotted from Lloyd's equation is consistent with this trend. Moreover, 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 less than 0.001). These results validate Lloyd's equation and hypothesis.
