#3 James Milner
The Liverpool man is nothing short of a workhorse on the football field. A capable left-back at Liverpool, he ran an average of 11.4 kilometres in every match last season, wherein a major portion of the running included off-the-ball movement, which is a skill that is rated higher than work rate which involves tracking back and closing down defenders.

Renowned for his industrious style of play, Milner covers more ground than most other players in the Premier League and hence would be an ideal choice for long distance running. Marathon running requires not only strength and determination but an undying spirit until the fag end of the race.
