FROM THE PRESIDENT DAVE MAREK

H

ello runners,

I am writing this letter as my next birthday is approaching just days away. Yet another year for me and a sign that another year for us at MDRA is quickly coming to a close.

We have just closed the book on our big fall races – the Victory 5K/10K and the Jeff Winter Memorial City of Lakes Half Marathon. I don’t think I would be exaggerating to say that we may have never been blessed with two better weather days than we were this year.

We had big numbers of runners for both races including a sellout for City of Lakes! Thank you to all who participated and continue to support the MDRA. I also want to thank our wonderful volunteers without whom we could never make these races happen. Special shout outs to the Washington Technology Magnet team and the Richfield Holy Angels team for working water stops. Thank you’s as well to the Hamline Track and Cross Country team, Northstar Running and the MDRA marathon training groups for their continued support and help. We appreciate your enthusiasm to volunteer more than you know.

We all know time flies and it is hard to believe that I am nearing the end of my term as President. I have one more letter to write after this but I have started to reflect back over the past three years. I will have more to say next time but I want to single out one thing now.

The start of my term as President coincided with the “retirement” of the long time operations manager of the MDRA, Heidi Miler. Heidi had an incredible 25 year run and to say I was nervous about what was going to happen with her gone is an understatement. In hindsight, I shouldn’t have been. As many of you are well aware we hired Sarah McInerney to be our new operations manager. I know it was more than a bit overwhelming at the start but three years later I can’t imagine a better choice to run this craziness. In my opinion Sarah has brought our organization to a new level and we are stronger than ever. There are a million things going on behind the scenes that can be very difficult to manage at times. It is a testament to Sarah that everyone on the board quickly recognized her talent and put their trust in her to steer this ship. So I want to take this opportunity to personally say thank you to Sarah for everything she has done for the MDRA. Hopefully you are reading this right before the Twin Cities Marathon weekend. Always a big event on the Minnesota running schedule and even if you aren’t running you can stop by the expo and say hi, renew your membership or become a new member at our booth.

We always love meeting members and talk running. If you aren’t racing, hopefully you can make it out to cheer on the runners and look out for the MDRA shirts. We will have another great group of marathoners on the course and they love the encouragement along the way. I encourage all you who haven’t trained with one of our groups to give it try sometime. You won’t regret it.

As the fall racing calendar is coming to an end I hope you have all had a good year of running and racing. We have had another great year of MDRA races and programs and we are already planning for next year and how we can become even better. We welcome your input and feedback on any issues so drop us an email. Our goal is to strive to be a great resource for the running community.

INSPIRATION

THE REAL RUNNER Bijesh Amatya overslept and arrived 45 minutes late, but he still ran the Green Lake Road Race in the rain

BY BOB KOVELL

T

he Green Lake Road Race (GLRR) is

a 12 mile run (yes, 12, one of the few 12’s in the nation) held in Spicer, Minnesota, on the Sunday closest to the Fourth of July. The 43rd annual GLRR took place July 1.

If you recall, it was a rainy day. Upon waking, I checked the radar and all I could see was “green and yellow” for the next several hours. Wow, gonna get wet, I thought; hope there’s no lightning. Well, there was no lightning on the drive from St. Cloud to Spicer. And when I arrived, the race director, Dan Hubbard, was busy setting up cones by the starting line in the rain. Dan and his volunteers do an outstanding job putting this race on. And, can you believe the entry fee is still only $25!

On a day such as July 1 there are few, if any, race day registrations. When I picked up my race packet the race day registration line was nonexistent. Nobody. I always feel sorry for the race director on days like this. No race day registrations, less gross revenue, water everywhere and dealing with volunteers who do not want to stand in the rain for hours. There was, however, a bright spot. As I jogged by Dan in doing my warmup I told him, “I’d rather run on a day like today than one where it’s 80 degrees, sunny and humid.”

The GLRR generally has over 250 finishers, but today the number was only 175. About 20 percent of the registered runners were “no shows.” It did rain during the entire 12 mile loop around Green Lake. And, as we were waiting inside Zorba’s (a race sponsor) for the awards ceremony, I told my fellow runners, “only real runners show up

on a day like today.” We, especially us veteran runners, think we are mentally tough and can run through anything—pouring rain, extreme cold, mud, whatever it is. But I did not realize who the “real runner” was that day until Bijesh Amatya showed up at our table. Bijesh is a fellow St. Cloud River Runner (SCRR). He and I frequently run the same pace, so we are friendly competitors, but not in the same age group. “Bijesh”, I asked, ”I didn’t see you at the start or on the course. Did you run?” And he replied, ”Yes, I just started a little late; I want to wear the race shirt and I won’t wear it unless I finish the race.”

You see, Bijesh overslept, but still drove down to Spicer and started the race by himself 45 minutes after the official start time. He finished 168th out of 175, passing seven runners in the final two miles. Note that finish time is determined by gun time at the GLRR. Now, how many of us would do that?

Bijesh, you are the real runner!

A Minnesota legend

After 45 years, Judy Cronen retires from competitive running

BY TIMOTHY A. CRONEN

J

udy Cronen, of Lakeville, Minnesota,

has announced her retirement from competitive running. During her career of 45 years she was the winner of more than 500 races in her age group in distances from the mile to the half marathon.

Her first age group win was in 1981 and her last was the 2017 Farmington Dew Run One Mile in which she set a state record for 76 year old women with a time of 8:55. At the 2015 Jeff Winter City of Lakes Half Marathon she set a state record for 75 year old woman with a time of 2:24:57.

Throughout her career Cronen set more than 50 state records in all distances, except the full marathon which she chose not to participate in. “Of course, records are made to be broken” says Cronen. “But when you consider that as a school girl I was always worried that I’d get a poor grade in physical education, I am happy”.

Cronen credits Judy Rykken, her friend (and her son’s Lakeville cross country ski coach), as the person who encouraged her to run competitively and her inspiration was Mae Horns, a gifted runner of that era.

The two main highlights of her career are: • Being named a “Minnesota Legend” in 2015 by ALARC • Awarded “Minnesota Runner of the Year” for her age group 14 times. She is in a tie for second place for total number of Minnesota Runner of the Year titles.

Judy continues to run three times a week with other types of exercise in between.

This room in judy cronen’s house displays her collection of trophies over her competitive running career.

We run to prevent suicides. We run to prove that the power of running can change the world.

Last year to mark my 52nd birthday, I ran 52 races in 52 weeks while raising $5,200 for leukemia research in memory of my dad who died of the disease. While this was a new type of challenge for me, I found there were lots of other longtime runners and people who took up running to help family members, friends

FALL 2018

and people they had never met. I have had the great privilege of meeting and talking with some of these wonderful people and I’m honored to share their stories with you here.

In Memorium

“At first we were like ‘that’s just crazy,’” said Barb Turgeon explaining her reaction to being asked to run a marathon. After all she’d never been a runner and now Children’s Hospital asked her entire family of nonrunners to raise money by taking part in Grandma’s Marathon.

After thinking about it, Barb, her husband, Brad, their daughters, Ashley and Nicole, and Nicole’s husband, Andrew, all decided they

were in. They knew Children’s Hospital well because that’s where Nicole and Andrew’s daughter Laney was treated for leukemia. Laney Hays was just two years old when she was diagnosed with leukemia and the blood cancer would take her life just before her fourth birthday.

“When you go through tragedy, you try to find something to focus on,” said Barb. “Training and raising money took the focus off the sadness.”

Just like dealing with Laney’s long course of treatment, training was not easy and sometimes very painful. Barb and Brad both developed knee problems. Ashley and Nicole had stress fractures that required they shift to

CHARITY walking and biking for two months. Despite the aches and heartaches, Barb said having a sense of purpose helped them through the eight months of training and the test races they did along the way. And when they crossed the finish line together, Barb said she crumbled into emotion and cried.

All told they raised $18,000 for the Kids Cancer Fund benefitting the Seventh Floor Cancer Center at Children’s Hospital in Minneapolis.

While Brad, Barb and Nicole have retired from running, Ashley has continued and Andrew will be running the Twin Cities Marathon this fall.

I Run for Ali

Troy Heller is a longtime runner who was looking for something more. “It was my calling to use a talent of mine that could help inspire, create hope, experience pain and experience joy and success,” said Troy.

And he found that something more through “I Run for Michael”. The organization matches runners with buddies who have special needs.

Runners share details of their workouts or races on the “I Run for Michael” Facebook page to build a supportive, encouraging relationship between buddies and runners. According to their website, “We want to see runners and buddies alike experience the profound power of encouraging and being supported by people who were once perfect strangers.”

Troy was matched with Ali, a young girl in Ohio with Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP), a disorder in which muscle tissue and connective tissue such as tendons and ligaments are gradually replaced by bone (ossified).

In addition to sharing running updates Troy sent Ali medals from various races that he completed. After a phone conversation in which Ali’s mom, Angela, told the story of how difficult it was getting Ali diagnosed and the daily struggles with the disease, Troy decided to raise money for FOP research and he raised more than $15,000 in 2017. His wife even secretly planned a detour of the family’s road trip so that they drove through Ali’s hometown and both families got to meet.

Sonya Strong

Sonya Goins wasn’t about to let Crohn’s Disease stop her from reaching the finish line.

Crohn’s disease causes inflammation of the digestive tract, which can lead to abdominal pain, severe diarrhea, fatigue, weight loss and malnutrition. And in 2010 the disease had Sonya at a low point in her life. “I was sick and tired of being sick and tired,” she said.

So when Sonya saw the pamphet for Team Challenge, a fundraising program of the Crohn’s and Collitis Foundation (CCF) she

said “What the hell” and signed up to run the Napa to Sonoma half marathon for two reasons. First, to strenghten herself because, “I refuse to let this disease control my life,” she said. And the second was to raise money for CCF because some of the medications she had been on had their research funded by the Foundation.

Sonya ran sprints in high school but now at age 40 she couldn’t run around the block. The Team coaches had her on a workout that started with a cycle of three minutes of walking followed by one minute of running. Gradually she built up the miles and discovered she loved running because it gave her a chance to zone out.

“I don’t think about work. I don’t think about Crohn’s.

I don’t think about the kids.”

Running with Team allowed her to meet people from all over the country who either had a form of inflammatory bowel Sonya goins runs to raise money for the crohn’s disease or knew a family and collitis foundation. she has crohn’s disease but member or friend dealing hasn’t let that stop her.

“It’s hard to fathom that so huge a talent could lie dormant, unexpressed, like a tiger waiting to pounce, through the prime of her life. But so it was.�

PROFILE

BY PATRICK O’REGAN

W

anda Gau is one of the best Mas-

ters distance runners around. She has no peer in her age group (5559) in the state and scarcely any in the country. Yet she never ran in her youth.

It’s hard to fathom that so huge a talent could lie dormant, unexpressed, like a tiger waiting to pounce, through the prime of her life. But so it was. Does this happen to people for a lifetime?

Surely, then, it must. Fortunately for Wanda, and fans of running, she discovered her talent as a Masters athlete. Not one to dwell on the past, Wanda has little to say of what might have been.

Whether, for instance, she might have toed the line with Joan Benoit in the Trials for the first women’s marathon for the Olympic Games of Los Angeles in 1984. Such romantic notions are swept aside in the brilliance of her running later in life, and what the future may hold as she gets comparatively better year by year.

Growing up in St Cloud, the oldest of four kids, Wanda had no athletic influences in her formative years. Her parents weren’t athletic and the only athlete in the family, her brother, played football and threw the shot. She took no part in running or any sports in grade school or at Apollo High School. “I liked sports,” she said, “but didn’t have any talent (!), so I became the athletic manager for girls’ volleyball and gymnastics.”

She chose Moorhead State after high school as a way to be more independent of the family and to grow. The growth, however, did not include running. Apart from aerobics with some friends in the dorm, there was nothing. She took bowling to fulfill the physical education requirement. As a freshman, she put on weight.

A handful of workouts, under the eye of a good coach, would have told the tale. But there was nothing.

She got a degree in elementary education and began her career as a grade school teacher.

The years flew by. She met Buddy Gau, who taught in the same elementary school. They got married and had three kids, all daughters – Angela, Christina and Michaela. Life – family, friends, work and a strong spirituality – was rich, full, loving and apparently wonderful, but there was no running. She reached 40.

“When I got to 40,” Wanda said, “my metabolism went down and my weight went up, as happens with a lot of women.” She and Buddy joined Fitness Connection, a health club in Little Falls, Minnesota, where they now live, and began to work out, though minimally. “I would run a mile at most on the treadmill,” Wanda recalled. But her muscles were waking up. She and Buddy joined the club’s running group (hereafter, The Group). Peer pressure and group

Wanda Gau is pictured with her husband buddy after running the PF chang’s ROck n’ roll arizona race. Submitted photo dynamics were to play a big part in Wanda’s early development. The Group asked Wanda and Buddy to run the Tiger Trot 5K in Little Falls, Minnesota. “I said, ‘I don’t run,’” Wanda recalled, “but Buddy got me going. He said, ‘You’re just afraid that I’ll beat you.’ I said, ‘Oh, really.’” The game was on. Wanda signed up for the race, determined to beat her hubby. “When I crossed the finish line,” she said, “I got such an adrenaline rush, I knew I was hooked.” (She did beat Buddy, easily.) She ran 5Ks with The Group for a year.

The next year, she ran 5Ks and 10Ks with The Group. After that, someone in The Group suggested a half marathon. “I thought,” Wanda said, ‘I can’t run 13 miles!’” She did. Then, in 2005, The Group decided to run Grandma’s Marathon. “I was very leery about that,” Wanda recalled. “Who wants to run that far?” In training, she developed a painful case of shin splints.

It was a good lesson about paying attention to wear and tear on the body, but made the marathon problematic. She got to the starting line with the others of The Group and stayed with them. As it happened, she was part of a crew who would be holding signs for a marriage proposal at the finish (Will You Marry Me?), so she felt obliged to finish. She did – in 4:56.

It should be noted that Wanda, for all her easygoing friendliness, has the toughness and

competitive nature of any good marathoner.

Through her early years of running, the fine runner, Jacki DeVine, was a major influence; in fact, a mentor. Winning was always a motivation for Wanda. “I was on cloud nine,” she said, “the first time I beat Jacki in a 5K.” She’d make a list of the people she’d encounter in races and cross them off the list as she beat them. At this point, Wanda began to chase her talent with a passion. She and Buddy joined the St Cloud River Runners Club, where she received a wealth of information on racing and training matters, such as, for example, running tangents in a race, running hill repeats, refueling after runs and recovering from injury. She absorbed everything. She read a lot, besides, and applied what she was learning. With every birthday, she’d think, “What records can I knock off this year?”

One year at the USATF National Half Marathon Championship in Duluth, she was assigned a place at the starting line among the elite racers of all ages. She was the oldest, but determined not to be the last elite to finish. It was close and took some hard running, but she wasn’t the last among them. Her competitive nature is interwoven with a deep spirituality which supports her in the hard training. To keep her focus on her long runs, she dedicates every mile to someone Continued on page 16 FALL 2018

NUTRITION

RECOVERY

CONSIDER THE 4 R’S WHEN YOU ARE RECOVERING

BY RENEE KORCZAK You just hit mile marker 26 and can’t wait to cross the finish line. The “runner’s high” or sense of accomplishment is tremendous; congratulations on finishing your marathon. After you stop running and soak in all that you’ve accomplished, it’s time to think about how to properly recover your body after all the hard work you’ve just put it through. Optimal nutrition is a key component of proper recovery from intense and long duration events like marathon running. While no standard definition exists for recovery nutrition, it is commonly thought of as the time after an intense training session or competition where you focus on the four R’s.

The 4 R’s of recovery nutrition include: Rehydrate with fluids and electrolytes Replenish muscle glycogen stores with carbohydrates Repair muscle tissue with high quality protein Reinforce your immune system with nutritious, fresh foods including fruits, vegetables, whole grains, fish, nuts and olive oil The quantity of each nutrient consumed during the recovery period varies and is based on current body weight, training intensity, volume and timing of your next running event.

For long duration events such as marathon running, it is critical to develop a recovery nutrition plan that you can follow immediately after your event. Some runners struggle to eat a well balanced meal after a long run because they are simply not hungry right away. If you can relate to this, aim to eat a small snack within the first hour post race.

The post race period is more about getting easily digested calories from carbohydrate and protein to help restore blood sugar levels, replenish muscle glycogen and repair muscle tissue. Some examples of small snacks that would be appropriate during the post run period include pretzels with nut butter on the side, half a turkey sandwich, a fruit smoothie with protein powder added or a sports bar that includes some carb and protein.

After you’ve properly cooled down and return to your home base, you can eat a well

Runners start the recovery process with fluids after the MDRA Victory day races in September. Photo by Wayne Kyduba balanced meal that includes carbohydrate, high quality protein, healthy fat and fluids.

The easiest way to think about what your plate should look like for the recovery meal is to fill a round plate halfway with a complex carbohydrate such as brown rice, quinoa, whole grain pasta, sweet potatoes, two slices of bread or a whole grain tortilla/wrap. The rest of your plate should be filled one quarter of the way with vegetables of your choice, one serving of fruit and at least three to four ounces of protein (about the size of your palm) including chicken, lean beef, pork, eggs or dairy products including Greek Yogurt, cottage cheese or a glass of milk. If you are a vegetarian, aim for tofu, beans, nuts and seeds on your plate to get the best blend of amino acids for proper recovery.

Finally, use two tablespoons of a healthy fat, such as olive oil, to coat your veggies or as a base for your salad dressing. If you sweat heavily during your race and weigh less during the post race period compared to the pre race period, drink at least 16 fluid ounces of water for

every pound lost and add sodium to your food or drink an electrolyte based beverage throughout the evening to rebalance your electrolytes.

By following the 4 R’s of nutrition recovery post marathon, your body will have time to regenerate. Athletes, including marathon runners, who properly recovery from intense training sessions or long duration events, decrease their risk for injury, sustain energy levels and are better prepared for the next competition. Working with a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) can help with proper nutrition planning leading up to and after your long duration event.

ince 2002, my dad Brad has been the

coach of the St. Paul Highland Park Cross Country team. Starting in 2005, he created the Hoof n’ Bike. This is a relay race with partners that alternate running and biking over a 13 mile course. This year at the Hoof n’ Bike, my team was made up of my sister Maeve, our friend Lucy, and me. We fell off of the lead pack during the race and we were not in contention for winning. When I decided to take an off trail shortcut, I got separated from them and had to run the last two miles by myself. I turned around and ran back

twice to look for them. I had no success, so I turned back around and finished without them.

When I got to the finish, they still hadn’t caught up to me. It turned out, when we got separated, they got worried about me and stayed behind to look for me on the trail, fearing bad had happened to me.

The Hoof n’ Bike has always been a big part of our cross country team and I have been a part of it every year, from losing my teammates this past year, to setting a course record with one of my best friends, Audrey Miller, in 2017, to sleeping in my stroller at the waterstop my mom put on the first year when I was a baby. I have always loved being a part of the Highland Park (HP) Cross Country team’s traditions.

The cross country team has always been a big part of my life. During the summer, I would love going to the Como Park Relays every Wednesday night in August. I could run the kids race for a quarter against my cousins. My older cousin, Ben Olson, a current SDSU Jackrabbit, was known for pushing the rabbit of the race, an MDRA runner named Kirt Goetzke. Aside from being able to race with my cousins, the Como Relays provided another opportunity to be around the HP Cross Country team. The girls on the team always made my sisters and me feel welcome; we were their own little cheerleaders.

If the girl’s team made shirts, they would make three extras for my sisters and me. The

Being able to be around these girls was such a great experience for me and inspired me to race. I always begged my parents to let me race in citizens races, always wanting to run faster and farther. They entered me in road races, running races from the Irish Run 5K to the Twin Cities One Mile. I loved them all. One of my favorites, and the farthest, was the 2015 Twin Cities 10 mile, a race that took an awful lot of convincing to allow my

It was a cool, fall day and I ended up running faster than I expected. It truly ignited the racing fire inside me.

That same year was the first year my sister Maeve was on the school Cross Country team.

Not quite two years older than me, I’ve always tried to keep up with her. Once she joined the team, I wanted to join as well, but was too young. My dad let me be the team manager, and I could go to the practices and run with the team, help time at the races and help my

dad with whatever he needed. Once I reached seventh grade, I could finally join the team and compete. I have loved my last two years on the team and can’t wait for more. Running has introduced me to so many amazing people from competitors on other teams to my best friends.

Highland Cross Country, thank you for all that you’ve given me and all that you’ve made me earn. It’s truly been amazing to be a part of this HP team.

COMMUNITY

Breaking in

Longing for a running buddy/ company on your run?

Here’s how to break into the running community

BY SHEILA MULROONEY ELDRED

W

hen Hayley Russell moved to

Minneapolis to start a Ph.D. program, she knew no one in Minnesota. She’d been running consistently for several years, so she figured running would be a good way to meet people.

But like many people new to running and/or Minnesota, she also worried that she wouldn’t be able to keep up on a group run or that everyone else would be more serious about competition.

So, she did some research, looking at the values of various clubs before settling on one that professed to being accessible to all runners. She got up her nerve, laced up her shoes and wound up running with three other women who became some of her closest friends in Minneapolis.

Now with her doctorate in kinesiology with an emphasis on sports psychology under her belt, she realizes even more fully the advantages of running with others: “There are lots of benefits to running with other people,” she says. Foremost among them? Accountability. “It’s really important for

COMMUNITY motivation,” she says. “You’re much less likely to cancel on someone else than you are on yourself.”

Another advantage, she says, is “upward and downward comparisons.” That’s sports psychology speak for sizing yourself up in comparison to your running partner. The good news is that there are perks to running with both faster and slower partners: “If you run with someone faster, you’re often motivated to improve,” she says. When you’re the faster runner, the comparison is a validation of your strength. And, it may also help you enjoy running -- and/or work a much needed easy day into your schedule.

The perks of running with others hold true whether you’re a beginner or an Olympic runner. As a coach of elite runners, Team USA Minnesota coach Chris Lundstrom says that group training is essential.

“It’s pretty well proven to help bring people to the next level, having someone to push you through the more challenging workouts,” he says.

“And the amount that [elite athletes] are running would be very difficult to sustain mentally if you didn’t have some type of group support.”

This could be true of many sports, but running lends itself exceptionally well to socializing. Think about how runners describe paces (or perceived levels of exertion) in terms of conversation. A coach may encourage a pace “easy enough to hold a sustained conversation” for an easy run or “hard enough that you only talk if you have to” for a threshold run. Bottom line: it’s worth getting over any intimidation. Fortunately, with such a large running community in the Twin Cities, opportunities abound.

Here are Russell’s and Lundstrom’s tips on breaking the ice over a workout: Find a group with members at your level. “Sometimes people are intimidated by a larger group, but as soon as the run starts it sorts out to particular paces and then you have a small group,” Lundstrom notes.

To find that group, follow Russell’s lead and do some homework on a club’s values. If nothing is stated online, email or pick up the phone and ask. If you do end up out of your league, don’t generalize that experience, she suggests. “Don’t decide that all running groups aren’t for you - think that that one running group wasn’t for you.”

Remember that most runners are happy to have company, Lundstrom says, and remember that you have to have at least one thing in common to talk about, Russell adds.

Groups are generally an easier way “in” than a 1:1 running “date” they agree, but if you’re in a smaller area without as many official groups, a more casual and intimate workout may be your best bet. When Russell moved to St. Peter to her new job at Gustavus Adolphus College as an assistant professor in health and exercise science, she discovered this first hand. Happily, she also discovered that people tend to help connect runners with each other. “When I started here, I told people I ran and they told me who else ran on campus,” she says. “Even this week, I got an email from the new chaplain saying she had to meet me because we both run. So make it public that you run.”

If casual networking fails, strike up conversations at races. “See who else is at the same pace, age and ability,” Russell advises. “It can be awkward and uncomfortable -- but that’s how it is for all friendships.”

And, like all friendships, remember that friends serve different purposes. “There are some people you do activities with and that’s the basis of the friendship,” Russell says. “If you’re lucky, you’ll have other things in common and choose to be friends outside of running.”

Fortunately, running tends to break down barriers, Lundstrom says.

“If you’re sweating and stopping to use the bathroom...you get to know each other pretty well pretty quickly. People tend to become fast friends.

I teach a marathon training class at the U and it’s amazing how over the course of a couple of weeks, I can’t believe this group of people didn’t know each other before the class. They seem like old friends.”

Programs: There are 24 people signed up for the fall trail class (up five people from last year). We project the COL race will sell out in the next few weeks. We have had a lot of new speakers and routes for the fall marathon training class which people have had positive feedback for. Thursday Track Club is going well with a lot of attendees. A roundtable discussion will be scheduled for December to discuss different coaching techniques, what works, and how we retain coaches. Discussions around stadium running have been started.

Promotions: Discussed if there are groups or businesses who would like to partner with MDRA and would be mutually beneficial. Our first dinner fun night took place and had a great turn out. There will be another one in late August.
