Canada's Virtual Team In Training (VTNT) is designed to bring all of the benefits of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada's Team In Training® (TNT) to people who do not live near an active TNT training location.  Currently, there are training sites in Vancouver, Fraser Valley, Calgary, Edmonton,  Montreal and Toronto.  If you don't live near any of those locations, join us and train through VTNT.

The Canadian VTNT is a program for runners and walkers and offers 4-5 events per year.  The next event is:

• Walt Disney World® Marathon Weekend (Orlando, FL, walk or run, full and half) January 10-11, 2009 .

VTNT participants receive all of the benefits of TNT participants and more, including:

• Training to run or walk a marathon or half marathon, provided by guidance from experienced coaches and experts through email, conference calls, plus training plans and manual
• Fundraising ideas, strategies and materials, including sample letters and donor forms to assist you in reaching the fundraising goal
• Your very own online fundraising page to help tell others about your participation in TNT and raise funds online from friends, family and co-workers
• Transportation to, and accommodations at, the featured event along with race entry and exclusive TNT weekend activities
• Guaranteed race entry, even if the event is sold out to the general public

In return, VTNT participants commit to raising funds to support LLSC'smission of finding cures for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma and improving the quality of life of patients and their families.  This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience to complete a personal goal and, at the same time, to help stop leukemia and other blood cancers from taking more lives.
