You and your Recruiter will review the results of the one–mile run event
on the 1–1–1 Physical Fitness Assessment. Your one–mile run time will be
used to determine your placement in either the Walk–to–Run Program
or one of the three running ability groups (A, B or C). Your Recruiter will
inform you of which training schedule to follow and the running ability
group to which you will be assigned. See Training Schedules tab. When
beginning a running program, care should be taken to follow a proper
progression for both intensity and duration. Cardiorespiratory training,
particularly running, if begun without proper preparation can contribute
to lower extremity injuries. Improvements in your body’s ability to use
oxygen occur when exercise involves the use of large muscle groups
over extended periods in activities that are rhythmic and aerobic in
nature (e.g., running, walking, swimming, cycling, and some recreational
sports). Walking or running may be the activity of choice because it is
readily accessible and can be performed any time or place with little or
no training.
