[Abstract] The present study was aimed to develope a new ramp exercise protocol on a treadmill to determine aerobic endurance parameters for elite distance runners. Maximal exercise tests were performed on a treadmill by 15 healthy male collegiate distance runners (mean±SD, 19.9±1.0 years) using this ramp protocol. The linear increase of measured VO_2 was obtained during maximal exercise test. Aerobic endurance parameters (VT, RCP, VO_2max, RE and vVO_2max) were able to be determined in a single test. As a result, this ramp exercise protocol was effective to assess aerobic endurance parameters for elite distance runners.
