AFT 2 Mile Run Time Standards and 400m Lap Splits
Last updated: 11 September 2026
An AFT 2 mile run time is the fifth-event finish on a measured track or improved surface after the plank, scored on the Army Fitness Test tables that took effect 1 June 2025. The official event card on army.mil/aft places the run on an indoor or outdoor track, road, or sidewalk. Unimproved terrain is not authorized. Out-and-back and lap courses are.
Key takeaways
- Male and combat 17–21: 60 points at 19:57, 80 points at 17:13, 100 points at 13:22.
- Female 17–21 (general scale): 60 at 22:55, 80 at 19:30, 100 at 16:00.
- Eight 400 m laps equal 3,200 m. Two miles equal 3,218.69 m. Pace eight even laps, then cover the extra 18.7 m.
- Combat MOS use the sex-neutral M | C column, not the female general column.
Official 60, 80, and 100 point times
Convert raw minutes:seconds to points with the AFT Scoring Scales PDF (approved 15 May 2025, effective 1 June 2025) linked from army.mil/aft. Download AFT_Scoring_Scales_250601.pdf. The full matrix also sits on this site’s 2026 AFT score chart. This page quotes the 17–21 60 / 80 / 100 rows only.
| 17–21 row | 60 points | 80 points | 100 points |
|---|---|---|---|
| Male and combat (M | C) | 19:57 | 17:13 | 13:22 |
| Female general | 22:55 | 19:30 | 16:00 |
Faster is better. A finish slower than the 60-point time for that sex and age scores below a pass on that event. Combat MOS still need 60 in every event plus 350 total. ATP 7-22.01 is the testing publication (APD PUB_ID 1032672).
400-meter lap splits
Two statute miles equal 3,218.688 meters. Eight even 400-meter laps equal 3,200 meters, 18.7 meters short of 2.00 miles. Army.mil authorizes a measured lap track. It does not say “eight laps equals the event.” Use these even-lap targets as a pacing aid, then cover the remaining 18.7 m (about 61 feet) on the same clock.
| Target finish (17–21) | Seconds | Even 400 m lap (8 laps) |
|---|---|---|
| 13:22 male/combat 100 | 802 | 1:40.3 |
| 16:00 female 100 | 960 | 2:00.0 |
| 17:13 male/combat 80 | 1033 | 2:09.1 |
| 19:30 female 80 | 1170 | 2:26.3 |
| 19:57 male/combat 60 | 1197 | 2:29.6 |
| 22:55 female 60 | 1375 | 2:51.9 |
The run sits last. Heart rate is already high from deadlift, hand-release push-up, sprint-drag-carry, and plank. Even splits beat a first-lap surge. Weekly aerobic work that supports those splits is on the AFT training plan. The five-event execution hub is /events/.
- Pick the 60, 80, or 100 row that matches sex, age, and combat versus general.
- Hold the even 400 m split in the table for the first six laps.
- Leave 2–3 seconds of bank for laps 7–8 if the plank left the legs heavy.
- Finish the extra 18.7 m after lap eight if the course is a true 400 m oval.
Combat versus general 2MR
Army Directive 2025-06 lists 21 combat MOS and AOC codes on a sex-neutral, age-normed combat scale: 60 per event and 350 overall. The scoring PDF prints that combat 2MR in the same column as male (M | C). A female 18B uses 19:57 for a 17–21 60-point floor, not 22:55. Directory and dates live on AFT combat standards.
General MOS still use the sex- and age-normed female or male column and a 300 total. Combat MOS also take the separate seven-station Combat Field Test. That field test is not a substitute for this run. Track CFT splits on the CFT tracker.
Profiled aerobic alternates
Soldiers with a DA Form 3349 that prohibits the two-mile run use one authorized alternate aerobic event. The last table in the official scoring scales PDF lists GO/NO-GO times by age and sex for a 2.5-mile walk, 12 km bike, 1 km swim, and 5 km row. Those rows are not 2MR point scores. They are pass/fail times. Work them on the alternate events page, then print DA Form 705-AFT from this site’s scorecard tool when the unit requires a card.
ATP 7-22.01 is the prescribing publication: PUB_ID 1032672. Do not invent a 60-point “row equivalent” for a profiled Soldier. The PDF calls those events GO/NO-GO.

FAQ
What is a passing AFT 2 mile run time?
On the AFT Scoring Scales approved 15 May 2025 and effective 1 June 2025, male and combat 17–21 Soldiers need 19:57 or faster for 60 points. Female 17–21 on the general scale need 22:55 or faster. Other age brackets differ. Confirm the live row on the Army PDF and this site’s score chart.
What 2 mile time is 100 points on the AFT?
Male and combat 17–21: 13:22. Female 17–21: 16:00. Those rows are on the official AFT Scoring Scales PDF hosted from army.mil/aft.
How many laps is the AFT two-mile run on a 400m track?
Units typically treat it as eight 400-meter laps. Eight laps equal 3,200 meters. Two statute miles equal 3,218.69 meters, about 18.7 meters longer. Grade the measured 2.00-mile course, not a shorthand 8×400.
Is the combat MOS 2 mile standard sex-neutral?
Yes for scoring. Army Directive 2025-06 puts designated combat MOS on a sex-neutral, age-normed combat scale. The scoring PDF prints male and combat (M | C) in the same 2MR column. Female combat MOS use that combat column, not the female general column.
What alternate events replace the 2 mile run on profile?
ATP 7-22.01 and the AFT Scoring Scales list GO/NO-GO times for a 2.5-mile walk, 12 km bike, 1 km swim, and 5 km row when a DA Form 3349 authorizes an alternate aerobic event. This page does not re-score those events. Use the alternate-events page and the official last table in the scales PDF.
