Valicom is proud to be a corporate sponsor of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Team In Training (TNT) program.  

About TNT  |  TNT athletes  |  How your company can help  |  Past events

Since 1988, TNT has raised over $1 billion to fund the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's mission: to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.

To support TNT's fundraising efforts, Valicom founder Erik Staley will run the San Diego Rock and Roll Marathon on June 6, 2010.  Valicom encourages you to support athletes who are participating in this event as well as other upcoming TNT events.  Please visit Erik's fundraising site for information on making a donation.

Please also support Mike Sheehy's attempt to break the Guinness World Record for most miles run in seven consecutive days, which will culminate with the SD Rock and Roll Marathon.  He's doing this to benefit TNT.  You may remember Mike from his 500+ mile run in January from San Diego to Phoenix.  We wish him the best in his latest attempt!  Please donate if you can, or better yet, donate and run part of his run with him!

Valicom is also working with clients to donate a portion of consulting fees to Team In Training.  Your company can help at no additional cost to you. Please contact Erik Staley to find out how.  Valicom thanks De Novo Software, a company that sells analytical tools essential to the diagnosis of blood cancers, for their generous sponsorship of TNT.

Past TNT Events

Summer 2009: To support TNT's fundraising efforts, Valicom founder Erik Staley ran the San Diego Rock and Roll Marathon on May 31 and -- less than a month later -- ran the Seattle Rock and Roll Marathon on June 30.  Erik finished the San Diego marathon in 3:55:05, and then narrowly beat that finish on the challenging and hilly Seattle course with a time of 3:54:33.  Erik says:

"Thank you to everyone who generously donated to my fundraising, supported my training, and cheered me on through the finish of both runs.  While running 26+ miles twice within a month may seem a great challenge, it is nothing compared to the challenges that those who are suffering from blood cancers endure.  I also extend my gratitude to the Team In Training Coaching staff for their top-notch instruction and to all those who coordinated our training runs and the marathon events. 

"I've now completed four marathons because of TNT, and I encourage anyone who's considering training for an endurance event to do it through TNT."

Spring 2010:  To continue to support TNT, Erik ran the New Orleans Rock and Roll Marathon on February 28, completing it in 3:59:22.  Erik has now completed five marathons with Team In Training.
