Stats on that Mental Picture

I am going to attach some of the stats that the Garmin device lets me see instead of the running map. It was 90 degrees at kick off and it was certainly a somewhat humid day, so I am sure I burned a lot of calories. But impressive was the amount of info that the Garmin device collects. I am sure others collect similar info, so perhaps it is time to look for one of these now that the cost is down to around $100.

And you can use the GPS map to see how you covered the field. For example I noticed that during higher level games, I don't go as deep so I now make a conscious effort to improve that aspect.

Yes, the Garmin watch I have does a great job of doing that, take a look at some previous posts to see what it looks like.

At this point though, I really don't look at the map much, but I am interested in seeing how much I run per half. It seems like 2.5 miles per 45 minutes is more or less what I get on average.
