Dynamic Drills


Not sure, if you know but I intend to participate in the Nike Women's Half Marathon this summer in San Francisco. I have setup a separate webpage with TNT behind my motivation for doing this, please do check it out.

Today, was the first session of Dynamic Drills with TNT at the Stanford track. I wish I knew training for a marathon included all this. It started off with the regular stretching on your own routine and a warm up followed by the Dynamic Drills. Dynamic drill consists of doing high knees, high skip, low skip, heels to toes walking, lunges, sidewalking, grapevine and RUNNING on the track routine after routine. I must have easily logged 2 miles of running on the track today. Its been a long time since my body fell like its pumped so much. I LOVE it!!!

Training is getting demanding week after week but I also see the changes in my body and my will power week after week. With each passing week, I am getting better with my aerobic intervals of training and trying to be more careful with my eating. I am also meeting such high spirited, friendly people through the program that keeps my motviation really high.

If I am in good luck, I should be able to geta video of the Dynamic Drills sometime next week and put it up here...Probably irrelevant to this post but the attached pic was clicked this weekend at Shoreline PArk, it captures the colors of the sunset in the lake there
