Welcome to the
Texas
Gulf
Coast
Chapter!
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team In
Training® (TNT) is the world's largest endurance
sports training program. Participants of all athletic
levels are supported in achieving the ultimate goal of
running or walking a marathon or half marathon, cycling a
century ride or completing a triathlon while raising funds
to find cures for leukemia, Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin
lymphoma and myeloma.
You don't have to be young, a great athlete or even in
terrific shape to join Team In Training. An experienced TNT
coach will guide you through a comprehensive four- to
five-month program tailored to suit your abilities, and you
will enjoy the camaraderie of team members as you train and
fundraise together.
Your honored teammate from the Texas Gulf Coast
Chapter will be your inspiration and added source of
motivation. Each team member meets and trains on behalf of
a local patient who faces a far greater challenge -
surviving a blood cancer.
You will be their symbol of hope for a cancer-free tomorrow
by your fundraising efforts to support the Society's
life-saving programs in research, education and patient
aid. Airfare, hotel and race entry costs are just some of
the expenses TNT will cover for anyone who reaches his or
her fundraising goal.
