runpaces 5.0

Runpaces is a program for predicting and analyzing running race performance. Its primary job is to predict a runner's times for various distances given times at one or more (up to 5) inpus distances, optionally using age, sex, and training data as well. It also provides a variety of other outputs, such as the effects of uneven pacing and of hills, and appripriate aerobic and anaerobic threshhold training paces. Another very useful type analysis provided is that of the runner's "best" distance - that is, the one at which his or her performances are highest relative to a set of performance standards also calculated by the program.
