The Experience
"I found out
about Team In Training at my company's recruitment drive. I joined for the
expert coaching, camaraderie and to travel to a marathon in London. But when I
met my honored patient, the real importance of what I was doing became
clear."
Training
The Team In Training® (TNT) program is designed
for walkers, runners, run/walkers, triathletes and cyclists of
all skill levels and abilities. Experienced coaches design a day-by-day
training program that prepares participants for their race day
events.
Group training consists of weekly workouts at various
locations in San Antonio. There are also informal weekday
group training sessions. You will receive weekly emails from coaches that
include training tips and updates.
Honored Teammates
Each season 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
parties. 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 race day apparel. The TNT staff is dedicated to helping you achieve
your fundraising goals. They provide mentors, ideas, suggestions and
materials to help you reach your goal.
