Does your usual workout make you feel like a hamster running in a wheel? Then it's time to take it outside. Grab a friend or fly solo to a Team In Training (TNT) Information Meeting (links below). As the world's first and largest charity sports training program, TNT will have you training with some of the best coaches in the country. Reach your fitness goals while supporting the fight against blood cancers. Get outside! Here's how:

Lean Green Triathlon Machine: The #1 green event in America is right in our back yard! Sign up and train for The Marin County Triathlon. This event goes several steps beyond basic—set up your gear while being serenaded by a Parisian accordionist; follow the lead of a bagpiper to the swim start at McNears Beach; and feel that last great burst of adrenaline as a steel drum band helps you make your last big push for the final home stretch.

Desert Classic Pedal: Arizona's Sonoran Desert is even more enchanting from the seat of a bicycle. Sign up with TNT to road ride 109 miles through the high desert on El Tour de Tucson—passing saguaro cactus and soaring mountain ranges. Pal (and pedal) around with others, and, most of all, enjoy the ride!
