South Carolina Details

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!

To learn more about our program, contact Ms. Bayne Brasel at (803) 731-4060 or bayne.brasel@lls.org or simply complete our Tell Me More form.

Information meetings are held in January, May, and August before each training season begins to allow those who are interested to meet TNT staff, coaches, past participants, and heroes and ask questions. We hope you will join us for one of the information meetings below:
