Basic running drills are often used to break the running motion down and isolate certain movements so you can work on improving your technique. Some basic drills you can use are called ABC drills, and they should be done as a set. Each one addresses a different aspect of your running motion.
The A drill involves lifting your leg and bringing your thigh close to parallel to the ground. Your leg is bent at the knee at an approximate 90-degree angle. As you raise your leg, you will dorsiflex your foot, or pull your toes upward toward the shin. While doing this, your arms should be executing normal running motion. Once your raised leg reaches near parallel, your leg comes to a stop and actively returns downward to the ground. Once this leg returns to the ground, your opposite leg will repeat this same motion. The drill looks like an exaggerated up and down running motion.

The B drill begins exactly like the A drill. Once your thigh reaches the near parallel position and the downward motion of the leg happens, your lower leg unfolds at the knee joint, bringing the leg to a nearly straight position. Your foot is still flexing upward with the toes still pulled to the shin. As your foot nears the ground, your foot should plantar flexion into the ground. The arms should repeat the same motion as in the A drill.
The final drill is the C drill. This drill begins by bringing the heel of your foot up to or near your buttocks. Your leg is folded at the knee with the heel of your foot near your butt, then you foot returns to the ground. Repeat this motion over and over again.
