There may be some daily variation in the Running Indexes. Many factors influence Running Index. The value
you receive on a given day is affected by changes in running circumstances, for example different surface,
wind or temperature, in addition to other factors.
LONG-TERM ANALYSIS
The single Running Index values form a trend that predicts your success in running certain distances.
The following chart estimates the duration that a runner can achieve in certain distances when performing max-

those Running Index values that have been received at speed and running circumstances similar to the target
performance.
