The Firefighter Mile (FFM) is a physical ability test for firefighters. It is designed to evaluate entry level firefighter candidates on the essential physical capabilities required to satisfactorily perform their job duties. FFM is based on decades of research in physical ability testing and extensive job analysis data collected from various fire departments.

The FFM consists of 10 events designed to simulate critical, physically demanding tasks faced by firefighters during an emergency. Each event has a separate time limit, and the test overall lasts approximately 20 minutes.
