hmmm? I just read a note Hally wrote in the Qteam's thread... So I thought...maybe... it would be okay to offer the VRAA an opportunity to participate...<br><br><a href="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18916" target="_blank">http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18916</a>

I'm not eligible to donate again until 2/12 (just donated 12/19). Silly rules about restoring blood supply or some such thing .... <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

Yay Jen! You are eligible on my younger son's 15th birthday!<br><br>
Thanks for your December donation. You are a hero.<br><br>
(Now, keep restoring your blood supply...)

What is a fair amount of points I can offer to those donating a unit of blood?

Points per pint? <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"><br><br>
I donate platelets, and just did that on Dec. 24th. Time to go again.<br><br>
ETA: Just made an appointment for tomorrow morning at 6:30 am. If I have enough iron, I'll be doing a double product donation.<br><br>
I'll be tired for my run in the afternoon, but not terribly so.

Yowza! You are a gift to so many!<br>

How about a 2 or 3 miles equivalent?<br>
That might be the distance someone is giving up that day so they can donate.<br><br>

...the fat lady is about to sing over this round of the VRAA... How about let's all be on the same team now? Let's score blood drive points. Remember, if you are not eligible, just get a proxy to donate a pint for you. You could win a lovely knitted cap. La Tortuga knits these ever so cool caps. Fun and functional...<br><br>
