Hmmm, can't find the referenced manual online, but I did find some info at

Q) What is the FIBA Referees Fitness Test?
A) The FIBA Referees Fitness Test is a 20-meter shuttle run. The test is conducted on a basketball court. Participants will be required to see how far they can run whilst running between the markers set 20-metres apart while remaining between the audible beeps. Based on your age you will be required to run a certain distance. [which seems to have just changed]
Assuming that a lap is one round trip, or 40 meters, 86 laps would be 3440 meters, or 2.1375169 miles (give or take a few microns).
There was no mention of how widely spaced the audible beeps are, so I don't know how long you have to do this distance.
