I think its all to do with muscle fibres Duncs. Running 10k is great for cardio, but not for speed, agility, power etc. Were you a very slow 46 year old!?

You will also see a lot of forward-thinking coaches involving speed, agility and quickness exercises into their training (there is a company called SAQ providing this type of stuff) in addition to plyometric training (leaping and bounding type exercise involving explosive movements).

 

If you turn up early to a professional level game (and some top-end semi-pro teams) you will often see such exercises included in a team's warm-up routine. On a more prosaic level, think 'fast feet' type exercises.

Training on your own for a team sport don't make any sense whatsoever,I think again it is an opt out you would never really push yourself and be in competition with other players who might be fitter and make you work harder and longer,1 12 minute run is that all my mum could do that and she is 76 come on fellas wheres your pride I go for 10k runs 2 or 3 times a week and I don't play anymore,I always prided myself on my fitness probably why I was still playing CCL when I was 46.

people are different so if i get more out of doing it on my own thats what ill do i now find i dont enjoy training as much as i used to i have a physical job an have had my fair share of injuries over last 3 years so find i push myself more as people are watching rather than being in a group an hiding or going through the motions believe me players are more clever than alot of coaches think!

fair play if your mum could do it at 76 shes obviously looked after herself .an also to you 46 an to still be playing well i know i wont be

Think they have shortened the original name from OLDFARTLEK,after complaints from the Refereeing brigade,who swear by this method of fitness.Rumoured Kroons was a founder member.

Kroons does a lot of 10k runs,and he is as fit as a flea.

 

 

Told he can bite like one as well !!!!
