Track and field

I joined the track and field team! Tomorrow will be my second competition plus friday, saturday and sunday I got swimming competitions so I will be very busy this weekend. In the last track and field competition I participated in the 800 meter event. I got 8th place of ten girls that competed. In my swimming competitions I'll be swimming 200 meter CI, back and freestyle, 100 meter back  and 50 meter freestyle. So wish me the best of luck for the track and field and swimming competitions.

Never give up on what you love...

The last weekend my team and I when to Arecibo to compete. The days were long and not so successful from my part. I was really disappointed because I didn't break my personal records. I really love to swim but I haven't been so motivated in the last days. Progress and success take time and I have to wait a little for me to go back on track. I will never give up and no matter how many times I fall I will get up again and again.

Sacrifices

In a sport you have to make sacrifices. Especially if it is swimming. Many days of the week are spend in the pool. Birthdays, family reunions, class' activities, school's activities are missed for days of practice. You have to make those sacrifices because if you don't do it you will never make progress.  Things aren't that easy to achieve but you have to work hard to achieve what you want.
