About Team In Training

Team In Training helps Blood Cancer United support cutting edge research projects in the most promising areas of cancer research.

Curing cancer is a Team sport

We were the first. We are the best. We will always be the Team.

For nearly 40 years, Team In Training has shown what's possible when people come together. What started in 1988 as a first-of-its-kind endurance fundraising program sparked a movement that changed charity sports forever. Since then, more than 700,000 people have joined the Team, raising over $2 billion to help advance blood cancer research and support patients and families.

We do what it takes. For everyone with blood cancer.

For decades, that belief has united teammates of all backgrounds, abilities, and experiences around one shared vision: creating a world without blood cancer.

Every Team In Training participant receives the support needed to succeed, from professional coaching and training plans to fundraising guidance and an inspiring community. No matter your experience level, you'll train with confidence, connect with teammates who share your purpose, and help accelerate progress toward a world without blood cancer.

The impact of Team In Training extends far beyond race day. Every mile, every ride, every climb, and every dollar raised helps fuel progress for people living with blood cancer. Team In Training helps Blood Cancer United support cutting-edge research projects in the most promising areas of cancer research. In fact, Blood Cancer United has helped advance more than 85% of FDA-approved blood cancer treatment options since 2017—which have led to breakthrough treatments for other cancers and serious diseases. Each and every dollar donated to Blood Cancer United brings us closer to our bold goal: to enable patients with blood cancer to gain more than one million additional years of life by 2040.
