ABOUT THE TNT MISSION

• Each team trains on behalf of an honoured patient. You’ll get to know that patient and draw inspiration from his/her courage. And by raising money for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada, you’ll fund research and treatment advances for cancer patients around the world.

• Leukemia causes more deaths than any other cancer among children and young adults under the age of 20.

• We’re making a huge difference - no longer are leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma considered almost fatal diseases as they once were:
   • Survival rates for children with leukemia have improved from 3% 40 years ago to 90% today
   • Hodgkin lymphoma patient survival rates have more than doubled to 88% since the 1960’s
   • Survival rates for myeloma patients tripled in the past decade.
   • 90,000 Canadians today are living with a blood cancer.
   • Another 15,500 - or one Canadian every 33 minutes - will be diagnosed in the next 12 months; 7,000, or one every 76 minutes, will die.

Make a difference, help us cure blood cancers.

Or if you’re looking for a little travel and adventure, you can train for the Dodge Rock ‘n’ Roll San Diego Marathon - A Race to Benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society on June 3, 2012 in San Diego California!

This flat and festive scenic waterfront run finishes at SeaWorld, adjacent to picturesque Mission Bay Park. The race route will feature more than 9 miles along San Diego’s waterfront and includes a stretch through PETCO park. This run is perfect for runners and walkers of all ability levels! AND, there will be live, local bands along the course, Spirited cheer squads lining the course, swag bags and a Headliner concert at the end of the event!
