Legal Question in Military Law in North Carolina

Administrative Separation

I am currently undergoing an administrative separation from the Marine Corps for problems I have having with my knee. I have no record of bad conduct in the Military, and my only problem is that I can't run the three miles required for our physical fitness test. I re-enlisted last November and have five and a half years in the Corps. Is it still possible for the Marine Corps to give me anything less than an Honorable Discharge?
