WELCOME TO MY TEAM IN TRAINING (TNT) HOME PAGE!

Help me SURPASS my fundraising goal by October 1, 2015!!!!

A tid bit of my story is that I started running for me. I wanted to lose weight and get healthy/fit. Throughout my journey I have had/still have amazing mentors and supporters. 

It takes more than one person to make up a team and that’s why I’m asking you to donate to my TNT fundraising page! 

By participating as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) TNT, I am raising funds to help find cures and ensure access to treatments for blood cancer patients. Help me reach the finish line and let's save lives together!

Your donation will help fund treatments that save lives every day; like immnuotherapies that use a person’s own immune system to kill cancer. You may not know it, but every single donation helps save a life with breakthrough therapies such as these.

Patients need these cures and they need your support.

September 7, 2015 Update: It is with a heavy heart that I update this post, Dr. Shane Frehlic has joined the angles and now I will be training and running in his memory. My miles are dedicated to the Frehlic family.
July 10, 2015 ***My Nike Women's Half Marathon 2015 training and race is dedicated to Dr. Shane Frehlich. One of my favorite university advisors and professors from undergrad. He has taught me about movement and mental toughness. He is currently fighting Acute Myeloid Leukemia and I am honored to be able to dedicate my run to him and his family.***

Please make a donation in support of my efforts with Team In Training and help get us all closer to a world without blood cancers.

Thank you!

Sincerely,

Natasha Drukarova

September 20, 2015 - This week I am thankful for having such an amazing team. They are selfless and strong fighters against blood cancers. We work hard and everyday I learn new ways to continue the fight.

September 17, 2015 - In the past week, I have worked on new ways of fundraising, new ideas on how to truly honor those who have passed from blood cancers and really make a difference. It's a tough battle but I am working on fighting it for those who can't. Training harder than I have before. Help me reach those goals...together we have more power. Thank you.

September 7, 2015 - The last few days have been tough emotionally. Shane Frehlic has joined the angels and leaves behind his wife and three children. My time has been spent writing Dianne Frehlic memories and sending love/prayers and of course in running/training. Throughout Labor day weekend I have ran a total of 25 miles. These miles are dedicated to the Frehlic family and served as therapy for me. My passion for the cause has been inflamed and I am ready to continue the fight.

September 2, 2015 - Last weekend we completed our first double digit run. The closer we get to the race and the harder we train the more emotion I feel towards helping save lives. Since I last wrote I also donated platelets again, which is an amazing experience, being in the same hospitals as those you are potentially helping. Help me make a change in September during blood cancer awareness month.

August 23, 2015 - This weekend was an awesome run with the team and an awesome mission moment. Everyday someone inspires me with their story. Thank you team for the tears and great run.

August 10, 2015 - The last couple of weeks have been amazing and inspiring. I have had the chance to donate platelets, raise awareness, continue meeting and running with wonderful people, and exercising/running/being active. Thank you to all who have donated, motivated and supported me.

July 26, 2015 - THANK YOU GuyBreet and Subway 14161 Jeffrey Rd. Irvine, Ca 92620 for your generous donation. It will go a long way.

July 25, 2015 - So grateful for family and friends who have supported my cause and my team!

July 18, 2015 - Amazing 5 miles and it will just keep going up.

July 18, 2015 - With Team in Training OC...some of the most dedicated, kindest, and amazing supports, survivors, friends and teammates you can ever meet. I am grateful for them!
