Sports Exerc., Vol. 42, No. 4, pp. 640-645, 2010. Purpose: There is a need to evaluate patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) with a limited or extended walking distance. We aimed to enable an estimation of walking distance as measured on a frequently used "standard" graded (3.2 km.h(-1), 2% increase per 2 min) protocol for walking distances measured on protocols with a lower or higher workload. Methods: Patients with PAD and an absolute claudication distance (ACD) of
