VAMEVAL
VAMEVAL calculator: stage to MAS
Enter the level where you stopped and how many cones you completed in that level. The calculator applies the scoring rule: MAS is the speed of the last level you completed in full. It also gives the speed you were holding, distance and time run, pace per kilometre and an estimated VO₂max.
A cone counts if your foot was behind the line on the beep. Use the maximum if you finished the level.
Your result
How the result is computed
The speed of each level comes from the official test table, reproduced below. The calculator never averages: if the level is unfinished it credits the previous one, exactly as an examiner would. Distance adds up the cones actually run. VO₂max is estimated with the Daniels and Gilbert model from the MAS, which gives about 43.6 ml/min/kg for 14 km/h; it is a population estimate, not a measurement.
What the calculator does not know
It knows neither your age, nor your sex, nor the test conditions. A level run on a slippery floor, with 19 m between the lines or after a training session, is not worth the same figure. The VO₂max shown is that of an average runner with this MAS; an economical runner will have a lower one, a beginner a higher one. For an entry test only the level counts, and the examiner reads it.
