A little help from my GRC friends...

I beg a small amount of your time for something not related to running, but related to something that should just make you feel good.

As some of you know, I recently lost a dear friend of mine in Kentucky to Leukemia. My friends life was extended by over seven years because he was able to find a Bone Marrow donor through the National Bone Donor Program. What I'm asking you all is to take a few minutes and please join the National Bone Marrow Registry. It's free, they send you a mouth swab and you send it back. It's that easy to be a life saver!

Here is the link: www.marrow.org/JOIN/index.html

No pressure...instead of posting any other comment to this post, I ask for you all to simply post a comment saying..."I registered"

Thanks for your time...Matt.
