Well i would say it all depends on what your coach likes. Our highschool coach likes a person with tons of stamina and can sprint for 30 seconds or so then stop and jog and barley be gasping. As i am going into my sophomore year and going to be starting varsity midfielder i run cross country before soccer season and they make u run 3-10 miles a day and that is really great because then youre prepped and ready. But if you dont want to do that and your in decent shap i'd run 3 miles for 5 days
then take the weekend off
then 4 miles the next 5 days
then take that weekend off
then the next week run 3 miles for 2 days. 4 miles for 2 days. then 5 miles the last day.
and just mix it up.
but if u want a constant excersice to be the same daily. just run 3 miles and do some sprints or something like that.

My soccer team makes me run five miles in like unlimited time (but you know, that means no longer than an hour or anything).
My gf's soccer team makes them run 2 miles in 14 minutes.
So, that means, you want to run about 1 mile every day for a week (if that's too hard, run 1/2 mile and walk 1/4 mile, then run 1/2 mile, walk 1/4 mile). Then, you want to pick it up gradually by 1/2 mile each week until you get up to like 5. if you ever have trouble, alternate between walking and running.

id run like 3. or aroundt hat
that would get you in shape, because thats running for about half an hour a day
buy the end of the summer, you should be able to run 4.5 miles in a half hour
so dont think of it as miles, think of it as timing

I play soccer and basically the whole time you play, you're running. I would say do a lot of crunches each day and run about a mile every 1-2 days. Try to stay away from soda/junk food around the days of your practices or games. Just get yourself in shape and used to running and you will be fine! :]
