From an article on CNN.com, World Cup Referees Outrun Players, do you think you could meet the fitness standards that World Cup Referees are required to have. I think this may make for a good interval work out on the track. It's impressive to see that these guys are out there running approx 12 miles per game. To think, if they are working 3/4 games a week, they could be getting in close to 50 miles of running a week during the World Cup. They also seem to keep up with nutrition and heart rate as many other athletes do.
Below is the test from the article -
Test 1- (6) 40m sprints in a time of 6.2 secs or lower with 1 min 30 secs rest between
Test 2 - Run 150 meters in 30 seconds, and then walk 50 meters in 35 seconds. Repeat 20 times.
