RELEVANCE OF TEST
The 2-mile run primarily measures cardiorespiratory endurance, which is an important physiologically requirement for conducting continuous operations and ground movements on foot, especially under load. Specifically, the 2-mileruncontributesto the  prediction of a Soldiers ability to execute a long distance ruck march while carrying a heavy load. A higher cardiorespiratory endurance also allows the body to recover quickly in preparation for executing another physically demanding tasks that may rise during a ground movement or immediately following, such as reacting quickly to enemy contact.
