300 attendees! High-energy! Interested in training for an endurance event & raising money on behalf the Leukemia Society? Come to our Team In Training KICKOFF to find out more!

There will be over 300 people from the South Bay and Peninsula coming to the Team In Training Kickoff at the Hyatt Regency Santa Clara (used to be Westin Santa Clara), January 31st 10:00 AM.

This is preceded by a one-hour Information Meeting at 8:30 AM. Please arrive 10 minutes early to register. (If you can't make this Info Meeting, there's another one in your area prior to this event.)

It's simple. You fundraise some money. In return, TNT provides professional coaches to train us in endurance events, such as marathons, half-marathons, triathlons, 100-mile bike rides, 13-mile and 26-mile walks, hikes down the Grand Canyon. The running and walking events this season are the:

  • Avenue of the Giants Half in Humboldt,
  • San Diego Rock N Roll Marathon & Half Marathon,
  • Pacific Crest Marathon & Half Marathon, and
  • inaugural Seattle Rock N Roll Marathon and Half Marathon.


The hiking events are Wildflower Sprint, Olympic and Half Triathlons and Honolulu Sprint and Olympic Triathlons.

The century is America's Most Beautiful Ride in Lake Tahoe.

The hikes are to Grand Canyon and Yosemite.

Just think. Within 5 months, you can join the thousands that have raised money for cancer research and complete the endurance goal event of your choice!!!

If you register with TNT at KICKOFF, the registration fee is $150. Think about it, $150 to train with professional coaches and lots of other enthusiastic weekend warriors until March. That's less than what you'd pay to join 24-Hour Nautilus.

For the vast majority of you, you will stay on for the full season and complete your goal event! Of the 69 Participants that went to last year's San Diego's Rock N Roll race, everyone raised the full amount and everyone completed the event.

Joining Team In Training is a life-changing event! Come check it out!


If you can't make the 1/31 Info Meeting that precedes Kickoff or if you want to go to one in your neighborhood earlier, please attend one of these Information Meetings.
