What is the normal range for oxygen saturation in a healthy person?
95 - 99%

Many runners train at high altitudes so when they compete in races at sea level their performance is better. Explain why training at his altitudes might increase a runners race performance at sea level.
They will be able to aerobic respire slower because there is less oxygen at high altitude. So when they run at sea level they will perform better. Lower partial pressure of O2, means more oxygen carried & more energy is released.
