The main required run in Marine Corps recruit training is a timed 3‑mile run as part of the Physical Fitness Test (PFT).
- The exact pass/fail and scoring times vary by age and sex (there are official PFT scoring tables).
- Recruit training also includes additional runs, conditioning runs, and road marches (hikes) during the cycle, so you’ll do more running than just the PFT.
- If you want a target: most recruits aim to run 3 miles under 22–24 minutes to be solidly competitive; slower times can still pass depending on age/sex and other PFT events.
