Navy Physical Readiness Test (PRT)
The Navy PRT on the treadmill is a 1.5 mile run. The time that it takes for the subject to complete the 1.5 miles
is compared to the table and a component point total is given.
The test is comprised of up to a 3 minute warm-up followed by the test session. During the warm-up period,
the subject can press the START or QUICK START key at any time to begin the test session. During the warm-
up, the subject can adjust incline or speed as desired. If the START or QUICK START key is not pressed during
the warm-up, then, at the end of the 3 minutes, the test automatically enters the test session.
At the start of the test session, the treadmill incline goes to 1% incline and stays in that position. The subject
cannot change the incline. The subject changes the speed of the treadmill as desired to complete the test as
quickly as possible. At the beginning of the test session, the time and distance begin to accumulate from 0.
When 1.5 miles is achieved, the time stops accumulating, and the treadmill enters the Cool Down state. During
Cool Down and after the STOP key is pressed, the test summary is scrolled, displaying the test time in minutes
and seconds, and the component point value associated with the test time based on sex and age group.
