However, there are no studies examining theperformance determinants of outdoor running on hilly terrains. We aimed to investigate the influenceof anthropometrics, muscle strength, and cardiorespiratory and gait spatiotemporal parametersduring level (0%) and inclined (+7%) running on performance in level and hilly 5-km races. Twentymale recreational runners completed two 5-km outdoor running tests (0% vs. +7% and −7%), and twosubmaximal (10 km·h−1) and incremental treadmill tests at 0 and 7% slopes, after complete laboratoryevaluations. The velocity at maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) evaluated at 7% incline andlevel treadmill running were the best performance predictors under both hilly (R2 = 0.72; p < 0.05 )and level (R2 = 0.85; p < 0.01) conditions, respectively. Inclusion of ventilatory and submaximal heartrate data improved the predictive models up to 100%. Conversely, none of the parameters evaluatedin one condition contributed to the other condition. The spatiotemporal parameters and the runners’strength levels were not associated to outdoor performances. These results indicate that the vVO2maxevaluated at similar slopes in the lab can be used to predict 5-km running performances on both leveland hilly terrains.
