I know in Australian Rules Football's national competition, selected players are wearing GPS units / plotters sewn into the back of their tops so that the coaches can download and review for tactical reasons. The mid-fielders (who do the most running of all of the playing positions) are doing around 20 - 23 kilometers per game (100 minutes playing time, i.e. four 25min quarters). Not much jogging, I'm told; predominantly bet. 50 - 100% max effort or walking (recovery).

What are illegal lacrosse checks?
Where I'm from, illegal lacrosse checks vary in women's lacrosse. As for men's, well, I don't play men's, so I can't help you there...but if you're looking for women's rules here's the way I've been raised:
When you are young and beginning, all checking is illegal.
When you are in secondary elementary school, checking below the knees is allowed.
When you are in middle school/junior high, check is allowed below the shoulders.
Eventually, checking is allowed everywhere.
The only checking I know is illegal at my age is empty checks. If your opponent does not securely have the ball in their stick, and her stick is empty, the refs will call this foul.
For further information, you can check your team/program guidelines or rulebook.
Now, if you want to know how to prevent checking all around? One word: cradle. Cradling is hard for beginners, but becomes a second nature as soon as you pick it up. When cradling, you are also securing the ball in your stick, flicking your wrist. It's quite simple. If you have been checked, and the refs don't call it, don't get distracted. Just keep trying. PRACTICE!
