Welcome to the Mississippi Chapter's Team In Training® (TNT) Web site! We are so happy that you are visiting!

TNT is the world's largest endurance sports training program. The program provides training to run or walk a full or half-marathon. As the largest endurance sports training program in the world, we will provide you with the experience of a lifetime, including:

  • Personalized fitness training by certified coaches for a period of four to five months
  • Travel to a major marathon or half marathon in an exciting location
  • A supportive group of teammates
  • The opportunity to make your athletic goals a reality an unbeatable offer with great personal rewards! 

In return, participants raise funds to be used in promting research and providing direct aid to blood cancer patients right here in Mississippi!  As a member of Team In Training, you will be training to complete an endurance event in honor of a Mississippi patient affected by leukemia, lymphoma, or myeloma. Your honored teammate will become the inspiration in both your training and your fundraising.

From beginner to seasoned pro, TNT offers the opportunity to get fit, make memories, and help save lives.

We are currently recruiting for these great Fall 2008 events!

Make a difference in your own life and the life of someone else TODAY through Team In Training!

His name is Jaidan and he looks like any other adorable 3 year-old boy, playing with cars, trucks and his big brother. But looks can be deceiving. Jaidan has been undergoing treatment for acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) since he was 18 months old. When he was diagnosed with blood cancer, it was beyond frightening. My cousin passed away from leukemia, and all I could think of was, 'I'm going to lose my baby.' The doctors explained that for ALL, the prognosis is good. Still when your baby is in pain and can't understand why, you just feel helpless. Jaidan is responding well to treatment, with a little more than a year to go. Thanks to research, we are fortunate.

When you think about participating in Team In Training, think about our little boy and what your efforts will mean to us and to hundreds of thousands of others battling blood cancers.

- Ericka Richardson, Jaidan's Mom
