The purpose of this study was to examine the basic characteristics of the movement pattern in a walk-to-run transition. Twenty healthy adults participated in this experiment. They walked on a treadmill, and their walking speed was increased 0.2km/h every 15 seconds. The participants were instructed to walk or run naturally depending on their speed. The phases of walking or running of each participant were measured by foot switches, and, at the same time a simple response task was given to the participant while walking or running. The result was that the instability of the movement pattern occurred during the transition, and the simple response task, didn't affect it. There were instabilities in each phase time, but not in the overall stride time.
