The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada's Team In Training is the world's largest and most successful charity endurance sports training program.
Since 1988, over 550,000 volunteer participants across North America have raised over $1.2 billion to help find a cure for blood cancers and improve the quality of life of patients and their familes.
Our team of staff, coaches, and mentors provide participants with both fundraising support and a four to five month training program to walk or run a 10, 21.1, or 42.2 kilometre marathon. Once participants have successfully met or surpassed their fundraising minimum, the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada arranges for their transportation, accommodations, and race entry for their chosen event.
In February 2011, the Halifax Chapter launched the very first season of Team In Training in Atlantic Canada. Since then, nearly 55 participants have completed the program and have collectively raised more than $200,000 in the fight against blood cancers!
With the addition of TNT Flex, individuals across Atlantic Canada who need a more flexible training schedule or who live outside our local training location in Halifax can still join the team.
