Yesterday, whenI got up at 4:30 am for a Saturday morning run, I didn’t bother to check the weather. It seemed perfect to run as early as possible and we were running by the ocean so it’s always very breezy. To me, the weather was perfect for running, until it started to rain, quickly after … Continue reading Weekend long run in the rain

I didn’t have any races this weekend, so I went back to my five mile Saturday run, which I hadn’t done in a while. I thought I was going to have a very hard time and it would take me a very long time to finish, since lately I have been a little slow and … Continue reading My fastest five mile run
For the first time since I joined Freddy’s Runners, I decided to run two races in one month. The first was the 5k oni International Women’s Day two weeks ago and, I completed the second one this morning at the University Of Puerto Rico Botanical Garden. The Estuary 5k, was a fundraiser for the program … Continue reading Estuary 5k
This running thing is starting to get addictive. I went to the track this morning, when it was pretty empty and it wasn’t supposed to be so hot. I think I should have gone earlier because it was still 87 degrees that felt like 97. But even with the sun shining at full blast, I … Continue reading Saturday morning run
Yesterday I gave running at the beach another shot. I went in the morning again so the sun wasn’t that bad but it didn’t rain this time so it was hot. It was also very different because it wasn’t the same beach. This beach has suffered a lot more erosion so I either had to … Continue reading Saturday morning run
I’ve got some good news, I got a job! I was worried it might take a long time because I thought I would be competing with a lot of other people. I sent many resumes but heard back from one of them for an interview pretty quickly and I got it! I’m nervous about it, … Continue reading Working hard for what I want
Since I finished Insanity Max (I love saying that) on Saturday, I had to choose the next program I was going to do. I was caught between Let’s get up and Insanity. They are both by the same coach, Shaun T but they are very different. I had already done Insanity like 10 years ago. … Continue reading I’m ready to do this again
I am now taking the second course for the Digital Marketing online certification and I think it’s going well. One of the reasons I decided to get that certification was that it would help my blog, and I still think it will, however I am having a little trouble blogging right now. Ever since my … Continue reading Need more time to write
Today’s New Year’s celebration is going to be a little different than it has been for the last 9 or 10 years. Every year I go with my family to the beach and celebrate the new year at the beach house in the other side of Puerto Rico. This year however,we can’t celebrate together, so … Continue reading Happy New Year 2021!
Alright, so I think I’m going to make it through the first week of Focus T25 Beta, tired, but I’ll make it. I got through it a little later than I hoped yesterday but I did it. Before that I did some cardio on the stationary bike but I didn’t walk after. Today, after a … Continue reading I’m getting better at this
Today I decided to start getting ready for the 5k I signed up for last week. This means walking for a lot longer than just thirty minutes which is what I usually do. It took me 113 minutes to walk 3.33 miles on the treadmill. That’s too much; last time I did a 5k I … Continue reading Getting ready for the 5k

An update on what's been going on in Puerto Rico: Naming Pedro Pierluisi governor was inconstitucional so he has to go. Now that that's taken care of, our new governor is the ex Secretary of Justice, Wanda Vazquez. No one wants her because of many reasons but according to our constitution sadly, she is next … Continue reading Third governor in five days
Maybe you have seen this in the news or social media but we, the people of Puerto Rico, have had enough of this. 889 pages of a personal chat between the governor and his team, were leaked to the press. They talk about things which the governor described as "stress relief" but the rest of … Continue reading Ricky Renuncia (Ricky Resign)
I've been told many times to write things down so I will remember them like for example making a list of what I need from the pharmacy or what I need to tell my doctor. I don't need help with motivation to do things, I need to remember to do them. Sometimes I can't even … Continue reading My to-do lists
