The Recon Physical Assessment Test (RPAT) is a next-level physical fitness test that Reconnaissance Marines must pass to join and stay in the community. Anyone who wishes to become a Recon Marine must pass the Recon Physical Assessment twice during the Basic Reconnaissance Course. The RPAT consists of a 500m swim, calisthenics, 1.5 mile run, 12 mile ruck, and 2 rounds of the Marine Corps Obstacle course. The real kicker in this test is the 12 mile ruck, which needs to be performed with a 50 pound ruck. As such, many Marine Recon candidates have been known to fail the RPAT the first time they take it. This video explains every event of the Recon Physical Assessment Test, as well as the minimums to pass it.
