Only a few months after augmentation procedures, the SPARTAN-IIs were capable of running at speeds exceeding 55 km/h or 34.2 mph. [[Kelly-087]] was noted as capable of running even faster. Later during the Human-Covenant war, while in her Mark V MJOLNIR Armor, [[Kelly-087]]'s top speed was 62 km/h or 38.5 mph<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 168''</ref> [[John-117]] has been noted to have, briefly, run at around 105 km/h or 65.2 mph during a [[MJOLNIR]] [[MJOLNIR#MJOLNIR_Mark_V|MARK V]] training exercise; however, his Achilles tendon was torn because the strain put on his body was unsustainable.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''pages 264'' ''page 299 2010 edition''</ref>

The SPARTAN-IIs were capable of lifting at least three times their body weight without the aid of their [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]].  John-117  was noted for using his enhanced strength combined with his skills and [[MJOLNIR]] armor to kill a [[Brute]] with his bare hands during [[Operation: First Strike]]. [[Cal-141]] was capable of blocking a [[Jiralhanae Chieftain]]'s [[Gravity Hammer]] swing with a single hand, dodging multiple swings from the Chieftain, using her enhanced muscle strength to jump to great heights, and wounding the Chieftain with a few punches and kicks; all with her armor as well.

Their reaction time, while impossible to chart accurately, was estimated to be twenty milliseconds. The Spartans' reaction times were significantly faster in combat situations or with A.I. assistance. The reaction times of the SPARTAN-IIs were so fast that they, in heightened states of stress, were able to think, react and see things as if everything around them was in slow motion - a phenomenon dubbed "SPARTAN Time" by Kelly-087.<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''' ''page 12''</ref> SPARTAN-IIs were also known for their sharp eyesight, their occipital capillary reversal allowing them to virtually see in the dark.
