wow! So do you wear a Garmin during the soccer game to track mileage?

Yes i do;). I think it is fair to count the miles even soccer is stop and go. So to achieve the same amount of miles you need to exercise soccer for much longer than running; soccer overal is less cardiovascular and lung; it is more burden on the knee ligaments; the advantages are: it is on grass; it teaches acceleration. running on grass is associated with more complex activation of propioceptors; it activates different muscles including the muscles that stabilize the knees; it also upper body training; while running is unidirectional/unidimensional, soccer is multidirectional;/dimensional; one of the problems is that you can get hurt during soccer; overall i think it is moderate good cross training, but so much fun
