Abstrakt:	The purpose of this study was to determine if the relative ordering of locomotor oxygen consumption ( VO(2)) values remains stable as healthy children age. Beginning at age 6 and ending at age 10, VO(2) during level treadmill walking and running was quantified in 15 boys and 18 girls who were tested on an annual basis. Following 30 min of treadmill accommodation to each exercise mode, subjects walked and ran for 5 min at 1.34 m s(-1) and 2.23 m s(-1), respectively. During the last 2 min of each 5-min stage, expired gas samples were collected and analyzed to quantify VO(2). For both walking (W) and running (R), 27% of subjects showed an average yearly change in VO(2) rank order of
