Numbers aren't bad: For running with ITP, it's the petechiae, if few and localised shouldn't be a problem, running isn't a competitive sport, and should be rather encouraged, check this site for some guidance and confer with your doctor,http://guide2itp.com/ask-expert-itp-sports

I have ITP. Recently started taking EPO to help balance my hormones as well, but noticed bruises and petechiae. Is it in any way related to the EPO?
