PDF Effective Control Test for Evaluation of Speed Sustaining Ability in Short Distance Running

【Supercategory:7. DESCENTE SPORTS SCIENCE Subcategory:7.23 Vol.23

 Several return runs of 50m (shuttle sprints) were performed to compare the time for 400m run in order to evaluate the speed sustaining ability in a short distance run. A significant correlation was found between the times for the 50m shuttle sprint and the 400m run.
 The results indicate that the time for the 400m run could be speculated from the time for the 50m shuttle sprint. It was also found that the speed sustaining ability can be evaluated from the times of the 6th trial shuttle sprint, the 8th trial shuttle sprint and the last half trial shuttle sprints as seen from the relation of the times in each trial sprint with that of the 400m run.
