6-Minute Walk Test: Females, Age 90-94

The 6-minute walk test (6MWT) measures aerobic endurance by recording the total distance walked in 6 minutes on a measured course. It is part of the Senior Fitness Test battery (Rikli & Jones 1999, n=7,183 US community-dwelling adults aged 60-94). Percentile curves (P5-P95) are from the Senior Fitness Test Manual, 2nd edition (2013), modelled from the same sample. The SFT version uses a 50-yard indoor course; participants walk as far as possible in 6 minutes.
