VDOT Calculator Page
The VDOT Calculator
Our VDOT Calculator leverages Jack Daniels’ VDOT system to improve running performance. On this page we explain that “VDOT is a measure of your current running ability” brooklynrunningco.com, roughly analogous to VO₂ max but refined for pacing. By entering a recent race or time trial result, the calculator computes your VDOT score (usually between 30–85) and generates target training paces for easy runs, intervals, etc. The page describes how training at these personalized paces makes workouts more effective and can help prevent injury by ensuring you’re neither overtraining nor undertraining. We encourage users to retest their VDOT every few weeks (as suggested by experts) to track fitness gains. The VDOT page makes advanced running coaching accessible: simply input your time and apply the recommended paces to see measurable improvement.
