Elizabeth Thomen – Asst. Run Coach
Phone: 323-428-4252
Hello Everyone! Welcome to Team In Training. My name is Elizabeth and I’m excited to be one of your assistant coaches this season. This will be my fifth season with the Team and my second season as an assistant coach. I’m here to help you cross that finish line so let me know how I can help…
I initially joined because I wanted to run a marathon for a good cause, even though I had never run more than 3 miles! When a friend was diagnosed with leukemia, I decided TNT was for me. Since then, I have found that many other friends and family have been affected by leukemia or lymphoma, like my great-grandmother who we lost to leukemia and my dad, a Hodgkin’s lymphoma survivor! Our mission is to cure these nasty blood cancers…
I’m sure you are going to love being part of our Team. The coaches, captains, mentors, and participants definitely keep me coming back for more. They helped me through five marathons, Rock ‘n’ Roll San Diego (twice =), P.F. Chang’s Rock ‘n’ Roll Arizona, Rock ‘n’ Roll Seattle, and Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas. They supported me both physically and emotionally, and I’d love to do the same for you! I look forward to getting to know you on our trails this season… AND, the best part is when all is said and done, you get to brag about fighting blood cancers AND running/walking a full or half marathon! GO TEAM!!!
