20 Years of Saving Lives

The year 2008 will commemorate Team In Training's (TNT) 20th year of saving lives--one mile at a time.  Since 1988, more than 380,000 TNT participants have raised more than $900 million for livesaving cancer research and services to help blood cancer patients live longer and live better.                 

Now, we're aiming for the $1 billion mark, and you can help make it happen!

Step Up to the Challenge

Look, we know that raising thousands of dollars and training to complete a marathon, century ride or triathlon is challenging, but we know that you can be successful!  In fact, we want to challenge you even further to go above and beyond your minimum fundraising goal and become a bonafide Virginia Rock Star!  If you can raise $1,000 or more over the fundraising minimum for the event you have chosen, you will receive the following exciting incentives and special recognition:

You'll stand out as a top fundraiser and all will recognize your support and dedication to finding cures for blood cancers.  Over the coming weeks leading up to the event, you will receive e-mail updates on new incentives and offers to motivate you to accept this challenge.  Be on the look-out for more information soon and get excited!

*The top 10 fundraisers from across the nation for each event will be recognized at the Pasta Party and receive special race weekend incentives.

*Those raising $10,000 or more will receive original silver gifts commissioned from one of the world's most exclusive retailers to celebrate our 20th anniversary.

Reason Behind the Design

The popular Team In Training phrase, "saving lives, one mile at a time," borders the Virginia Rock Star center in the shape of a star.  The emblem was designed to represent the Society's North Star 2015 Vision, in which we envision that in the year 2015, the great majority of people who have been diagnosed witha blood cancer will be cured or they will manage their illness with good quality of life.
