I agree that running is the best thing you can do to "get in shape" for officiating. As others have suggested, add variety to the kinds of running you are doing. (Run fast at times; run for distance/endurance at other times; etc.)

I write here to add that, whether or not you are participating in yoga, the most important thing you can do for flexibility and injury prevention is to stretch properly. For the most part, this stretching is done after your run, when your muscles are warmed up. Good luck.
