Amazing! Dane Rauschenberg (www.fiddy2.org) finished 52 marathons in 52 weeks back in 2006. This video tells you why he did it, and how. You know what else is crazy? He still managed to NOT take any time off, and still worked a full time job averaging at 50 hours a week! This goes to show that anything is possible!


TNT Cycling Video

Even though this is about the TNT cycle team, we are all part of the same Team (In Training) supporting the same cause. This video is so powerful, showing video of the camaraderie of cyclists, and images of the children affected by the disease. It’s very heartfelt, and the song is “Star” by Zoo Story. It’s a great video to keep looking back at for motivation, reminding of us all why we do the things we do.


Website Optimized TNT Site

I have a huge interest in online marketing, web design, and running. This video covers all three. Sure, it’s a marketing video trying to get people to use the Google Website Optimizer, but it was some great insight by the VP of eMarketing of LLS on why certain aspects of the TNT website exist. I bet you never knew how much effort is put into a website like that?

This just insane! I was just browsing for some interesting videos on active living, then I came across this extreme sport of kite surfing. Imagine being on a snowboard, then getting a huge kite to pull you through, BUT in extreme winds. Results are potentially dangerous… look at this guy.

Be Creative

Just when you thought there’s no other options, there is always another option. Some of you may feel this at the end of your fundraising efforts, but look outside the box sometimes – ask alumni, go to forums, Facebook groups, MySpace groups, or just Google it.


Run Rage

Forget Road Rage, do you ever get Run Rage? There’s a pretty funny Nike Commercial on just that.


Ironman Founders

2.4 mile swim. 112 mile bike. 26.2 mile run. WTF??

I have a few friends who are training for the Ironman next year, and I’ve always wondered how it all started. It all started because of one question between swimmers and runners, “Who are the best athletes?”. So John & Judy Collins started with that idea, and made it a success.


Running Song for TNT

Posted: December 4th, 2008 | Author: Marvin Tabangay | Filed under: videos | Tags: , | 2 Comments »

I stumbled upon this music video by Erin Sholl aka Lady Southpaw while searching for running or TNT related videos on YouTube. This is one great example that not all efforts outside of training has to go towards fundraising. It’s about helping people get motivated. It’s more than just running, and it’s more about inspiration. Her event and fundraising is done, but I’m sure this video will still continue to inspire others, and it’s great to see creative ways people promote the cause.
