  1. Linear deceleration on the speed parameters across minutes 1–6 at Time 1 and Time 2. Mean speed values reflect the average duration (in seconds) necessary to cover the 25-foot distance (25-foot-walkspeed) and to circle the poles at the end of the 25-foot walk distance (Curvespeed), during respective test minutes 1–6. SD Standard deviation
