1.5-Mile Run (Cooper): Females, Age 60-69

The 1.5-mile (2.4 km) run test measures aerobic endurance by timing how long it takes to complete the distance at maximal effort. Data are from Physical Fitness Assessments and Norms for Adults and Law Enforcement (Cooper Institute, Dallas TX), widely used by US police departments, the FBI, and military branches. Because the source population is law enforcement candidates, likely fitter than the general public. These norms may be faster than population-wide averages. This test is also known as the 2.4 km run test. Note: this source is an institutional monograph with no DOI and undisclosed sample sizes; it is the only publication providing full percentile tables by age and sex for this test.

95th 14:28 Excellent

What these numbers mean for females aged 60-69

A score around 20:08 is typical (50th percentile) for females in this age group. Times below about 23:20 fall near the 75th percentile or higher, indicating above-average performance (faster is better). Times above about 17:34 fall near the 25th percentile; about 75% of the reference population ran faster.

Percentiles show how common a value is, not whether it is healthy.
