Dynamic Stretching DVD?

Hey All,

Been looking for a good Dynamic Stretching DVD to use as a warm up before my runs. I am looking for one with about a 10 minute routine. So far my search has mostly lead me to "instructional" DVD's not actual workout DVD's, like these below:

http://www.amazon.com/TD-Performance...1241601&sr=8-1

Trailer of the series and small clip of DVD here:

According to the write up there is also a bonus pre-athletic warm-up routine on Jill Miller's Yoga Tune Up Post Athletic Stretch Routines DVD:

And since I like Coach Troy from Spinervals, I may spring for this one:

Jill Miller's dynamic warm-up is about 11 minutes long; I added my review of her DVD to the Amazon link you posted above.

Another vote for this one, which a very kind VF'er recently gifted me with. It's lovely and filmed poolside (in Beverly Hills, I think). When I do it, I like to imagine I'm also beside a pool in sunny Cali and as graceful as Janis.

Another vote for Jill Miller's dynamic warm-up stretch off of Post Athletic Stretch.

A somewhat unorthodox suggestion, but I've actually used the first part of Brooke Siler's Element Pilates Weight Loss for Beginners, called Pilates-Conscious Cardio, for this purpose. It's a little longer than you want, however, at 18 minutes. You can read my breakdown of the moves here and see clips at Collage and Total Fitness DVDs.

Karen Voight has a warm-up stretch on her Full Body Stretch that's more dynamic. Again, it's a little longer than you're looking for at 16 min., it has some corework, and it doesn't have a ton for the legs, as it's done seated. Again, clips are available at Collage and Total Fitness, and a breakdown can be found here.

How about this program by Annette Fletcher? I haven't tried it, but one of the 3 segments is supposed to be dynamic stretching:
