The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS)'s
South Carolina Chapter Team In Training® (TNT) program offers a
16- to 20-week, daily training schedule designed for
the novice to advanced athlete. TNT will prepare you to make a
difference one mile at a time!
Our knowledgeable and accessible
coaches will
work with you on form, nutrition and apparel so that you are ready to cross
the finish line of a major endurance event. Your
mentor, a
former team member, will provide you with fundraising ideas and moral
support throughout the program. Your
honored
hero, a local child or adult who is receiving treatment
or is in remission from a blood cancer, will give you the added inspiration
to keep training and to push towards the finish line.
In return, participants raise funds to help LLS succeed in its mission
to cure blood cancers and improve the quality of life of patients and their
families. When participants meet or exceed their fundraising
goals, LLS says thanks by covering their race registration, round trip
airfare and hotel stay for event weekend.
We invite you to join us as we train for the following events this
fall:
Sept. 14 The Nation's Triathlon to benefit
LLS Washington,
DC
Oct. 12 The Bank of America Chicago
Marathon Chicago,
IL
Oct. 19 Nike Women's Marathon to benefit
LLS San Francisco, CA
Don't miss this opportunity to experience the rewards of completing an
endurance event while helping to accelerate cures for blood cancers!
