VAMEVAL level 13
At level 13 of the VAMEVAL, the required speed is 14 km/h: 12 cones of 5.14 s each. The level lasts 1 min 02 s; when it ends you have covered 2 400 m in 13 min 07 s. Completing it in full credits you with a MAS of 14 km/h, roughly 44 ml/min/kg of VO₂max.
This is a trained runner’s level. Holding 14 km/h in a shuttle, with a turn every 5.1 seconds, takes a solid MAS and a clean turning technique.
The previous level, 12, was run at 13.5 km/h. The next one, 14, moves to 14.5 km/h. On this test the gap between two levels is small in speed and large in feel, because fatigue carries over from one level to the next.

Frequently asked questions
What MAS does level 13 of the VAMEVAL give?
A MAS of 14 km/h, provided you complete the level. If you stop midway, the scoring rule credits the last full level, so 13.5 km/h (level 12).
How long does level 13 last?
1 min 02 s, i.e. 12 cones of 5.14 s. From the start of the test that makes 13 min 07 s of running.
What pace per kilometre is this level?
14 km/h is 4:17 /km. That is the pace you would hold on a track, without the turns: in a shuttle the same figure costs more.
