I don't get it...
What is a pacer test? Is it a US specific thing?
It's a test that makes you run laps until you no longer meet the threshold. [This specific variation] (https://youtu.be/Y82jDHRrswc) has been used in a lot of schools, so it's become a bit famous.

It sounds like something we did (in the US) in gym class, but I've never heard it called that before.
I think outside the US it's usually referred to a "shuttle run test". If you've got any memories of running up and down the gym trying to race the beeps on a CD, it's that.
