The Experience


Hear what of our participants have to say.......


"Having never been a runner, but wanting to complete a full marathon, I knew that I needed a lot of support and direction to achieve my goal. Team In Training provided me with just that. My coach always had answers to questions and terrific tips for training. She gave me the guidance I needed, without being overbearing. I also liked being able to help other people even though I was attaining a personal goal. Team In Training is a very easy organization to work with. The participants are every day people, not elite athletes, so I never felt out of my league. I truly enjoyed my experience with the organization."

"Team In Training is a phenomenal opportunity for members of a community to join together and work for a common goal. The result of TNT participants' efforts are life changing for both those who benefit from The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's support and for those who have completed an endurance event after reaching a sizeable fundraising goal."

"I've found Team In Training to be the perfect venue for bringing out the best in people. I've been involved for over 9 years and met a lot of great people doing some really great things. "

Training
The Team In Training® (TNT) program is designed for walkers, runners, triathletes, and cyclists of all skill levels and abilities. TNT offers the most comprehensive training program including experienced coaches who design a day-by-day training program that prepares participants for their race day events.

Group training consists of Saturday or Sunday morning workouts at various locations around MA, NH and ME. There are also informal weekday group training sessions. In addition to meeting with your coaches weekly, you will receive weekly emails from coaches that include training tips and updates.

Honored Teammates
Each team has an honored teammate, a leukemia patient or survivor, in whose honor the participant trains, races and raises funds. The honored teammate is each participant's personal connection to leukemia and other blood cancers. Participants have a chance to meet their honored teammates at socials and training. Participants can also train in honor or memory of someone in their personal life.

Fundraising
In return for all the wonderful benefits of the TNT program, participants are asked to raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Once you achieve the fundraising minimum for your race, the TNT staff will arrange and pay for your airfare, hotel stay, race registration, TNT weekend events and wetsuit for triathletes. The TNT staff is dedicated to helping you achieve your fundraising goals. TNT staff and mentors provide ideas, suggestions and materials to help you reach your goal.
