The multi-stage fitness test incurs a total distance of 4940 meters in a time of twenty two minutes and three seconds (22:03). Please note, there are a few errors in this table compared to the original one minute MSFT as published by Leger & Lambert [1], mainly in the round-ups on stage 8 & 20 these should be exactly one minute as originally designed.
