Team In Training (TNT) is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's groundbreaking charity sports training program! For the past 23 years, TNT has been unparalleled in training beginner to seasoned athletes to complete marathons, half marathons, triathlons and 100-mile bike rides while raising funds for lifesaving cancer research. We have trained over 450,000 athletes and raised over $1 BILLION to further the mission of LLS. In exchange for reaching your fundraising minimum, you will experience an event weekend to remember!
What types of sports and/or events do you train for?
In Edmonton, Calgary and Saskatoon, we are training for running or walking a full or half marathon and we are also training for a triathlon, new for the Fall Season!How much do I have to fundraise?
Each event has its own fundraising minimum ranging from $3500 - $5000.
Will I have any fundraising help or support?
You will be provided with as much support as you need as a fundraiser for LLSC. A Team In Training staff member will be available to help you throughout the season with fundraising ideas and support. You will also be provided a volunteer mentor who will help you plan and execute your fundraising strategy. LLS provides each athlete with an individual online fundraising website that can be personalized and sent via email and letter to as many people as possible. This online portal allows for easy online donations by your friends, family and colleagues.
When does training begin?
Our Fall Season kicks off May 26th.
Our Kick Off Celebration invites all team members and prospective team members to come and celebrate the start of the training season with snacks and an inspirational program. Athletes will meet their mentors and coaches at this gathering and training schedules will be handed out. All team training schedules begin that week.
What kind of training support will I receive?
You will join a training team that is staffed by a TNT staff member and led by a group of dynamic and expert coaches. These coaches provide all the detail and hands-on information needed to train and complete an endurance event. Coaches are accessible via email and phone as well as available face-to-face at Saturday GTS (Group Training Sessions). Along with a customized training program and expert coaching, participants will train with a local group of like-minded individuals for motivation and inspiration.
When and where does the team train?
Each location (Edmonton, Calgary and Saskatoon) has Group Training Sessions every Saturday Morning. In addition, the coaches often have mid-week training.
