Beep Test Tables
For the beep fitness test, participants run out and back on a 20 meter course, with the running speed increasing at set intervals until they are unable to continue. We have created a table below showing the speeds, timing and accumulated distance for each level. There is a larger more complete table with the details of each shuttle listed. This data is based on the commonly used version of the test.
