Twenty years ago, a group of athletes from the New York area hired a coach and trained for the New York City Marathon while raising money for blood cancer research. The inspiration for their endeavor was a leukemia patient, Georgia Cleland, the young daughter of the team's organizer, Bruce Cleland. From this effort the seed was planted for TNT, which today trains approximately 39,000 people a year to participate in marathons, half marathons, triathlons and 100-mile cycling events.
Since that first team crossed the finish line, more than 360,000 TNT participants have raised more than $850 million for blood cancer research and patient services. Now, TNT is setting its sights on reaching the $1 billion mark by the end of this 20th anniversary celebration year!
