Marathons & Half Marathons

Team In Training offers runners and walkers the opportunity to take on the challenge of a marathon or half-marathon and make a difference in the lives of an estimated 894,543 Americans living with blood cancers. 

Along with a customized-training program and expert coaching, participants will train with a local group of like-minded individuals for motivation and inspiration.

WALK
Our coaches will help you with a technique that is energy efficient, less tiring and less stressful than running.  It is a style of walking that can tone your muscles, increase your flexibility, give you a full body workout and improve your cardiovascular system by using 93-95% of your muscles. TNT coaches focus on technique, endurance training and training.

RUN
Our coaches will help you condition your mind and body for event day while learning important lessons of nutrition, strength-conditioning, proper shoes, setting a healthy pace, and ultimately completing this endurance event!

RUN/WALK
The run/walk method has become increasingly popular in helping beginners complete the marathon distance as well as improving personal best times for the intermediate and advanced runners. By inserting walk breaks into the long runs from the beginning of each run, you conserve your running muscles before they reach a detrimental level of fatigue. The run/walk program is available for all TNT marathon and half marathon events.
