Nell McAndrews Reveals Marathon Tips

In her latest blog, former Lara Croft Model; Nell McAndrew talked about the her new Nokia which she used for her fitness training to prepare for her half marathon on the 11th October. She also said that she is training with Jackson Williams:

"I have been using my Nokia 5800 Comes With Music device to help me train. It’s an amazing mobile phone which gives me unlimited access to download millions of music tracks – great for keeping motivation up! I’m really loving I’ve got a feeling – Black eyed peas at the moment, it never fails to keep me smiling and keep me going.

I’ve also downloaded an app called ‘Nokia Sports Tracker’ from the Nokia Ovi Store onto the phone. I’m not too good with complicated technology, so luckily this is really easy to use. Before each training session I just switch on Sports Tracker and my speed, route and time are all monitored. It’s been great at helping me compare each session and see how I’m improving. "

Also in her Blog, Nell had revealed some of her warming up stratagies

"Before your run, take 10-12 minutes to warm up by

Slow jogging for three minutes

Lunges and squats for two minutes

Long, leaping running strides with your front knee high and back leg fully extended for one minute

Dynamic Stretches, move with the stretch but do not bounce, for three minutes

Heel kicks and high knees for two minutes"

She also promised a new video with more tips also starring Jackson Williams.
