You have lots of answers, all good, but yet one more would be to do
exactly as you say:
1. mark "start delete" with md (sets mark d)
2. move to end of text to delete
3. Use the ex command, ":d" to delete the lines, with a range starting
at your previous mark like this:
:d,.d
Or, instead of using an ex command in (3), you could use a motion as
suggested before, to delete up to the mark:
d'd
See :help bookmark for details.
