Yesterday, I answered the call to give blood. The pandemic ,and crazy cold weather, has reduced giving. I heard that their was a drive downtown when I was in the office. It was a quick walk to the civic center and the total process was 30 minutes. My Ironman is in 4 months so this was one of the last opportunities I had to give without compromising my training. I felt every step of my long run this morning but it was worth it.
