The 1.5 Mile Fitness Test

Make sure you’re warmed-up and of course clinically clear to exercise.

What to do?

• Find a running track or space that enables you to run for 1.5 miles without stopping and which
enables you have distance markers.
• If you’re struggling to find a track or space then the treadmill might be the next best alternative.
Make sure you set the machine to a 1% incline to better simulate outdoor running.
• Start the watch and off you go!

You can run, jog, walk or do all three, just make sure you get to the end

• Record how long it took you to complete the 1.5 mile distance.

How did you do?
