Lactate threshold, or anaerobic threshold actually changes through training, so you probably don't want to go to the bother of having it tested in a controlled environment. The real value is knowing around where your AT/LT is, so you can train at intervals higher than that to push it higher.

In other words, you found it. Don't get too hung up on the exact number.
