ContextAerobic fitness, an important predictor of cardiovascular disease and mortality, is
difficult to assess by maximal exercise testing in older adults. Extended walking tests have
been examined as outcome predictors in medically ill populations but not in community-
dwelling older adults. ObjectiveTo determine whether an extended walking test predicts
poor outcomes in older adults. Design, Setting, and ParticipantsObservational cohort study
enrolling 3075 community-dwelling adults aged 70 to 79 years living in Pittsburgh, Pa, or …
