Orlando's 30 Miles for his dirty 30th birthday challenge
I will be running a minimum of 30 miles till the end of July for Orlando's 30th birthday gift. I started late (July 11) so I have 20 days left. This seems very easy to accomplish, but I still have a family to raise and two homes to take care of. My family has been so busy the last couple of weeks we barely have time for each other. My husband Orlando has been working on our new home nonstop so we can move in before our rental lease is up. I'm excited for this challenge because it'll help motivate me to get back on the right track again. I'm looking forward to see how many miles I end up running by the end of the month. Down 2.25 miles 27.75 miles to run!

Valentine's Day dilemma
It's been two weeks since we last went to church. I felt like a lot of things were trying to hold me back from going today, but in the end I decided I needed to go. Today's service was a little different. I grew up in a Catholic Church so I was used to the traditional routine, but since I married my husband I have been attending his church. It's different to me because I have never heard of having service without the breaking of the bread and drinking the wine. This was routine to me and I was comfortable with it. Our current church has showed me there are different ways to worship the people dance, yell out their prayers, sing at the top of their lungs, etc. It made me uncomfortable at first, but now I really enjoy it. It makes me happy to see how others worship God and give Him praise. It's really opened my eyes but I'm still learning to fully open my heart and give Him my whole heart. I am glad we attended church today even though I felt like something kept trying to push me away from going. First my plan for the day didn't go as planned cause I didn't have anyone to watch my son so I could get all the things I wanted to do out of the way. Then when I was going to purchase cupcakes for my husband for Valentine's Day the line was to the door. Then I wanted a salad from McDonald's and GPS took me so far away from my destination. All this made me into a grumpy woman. I didn't even want to do anything at this point. Also, I still had to go to the gym to run. I just wanted to skip church so badly, but I think my spirit knew I needed to go to church even though my flesh was telling to go home and just relax. After all that I attended service with my husband and went to the gym after service even though I didn't want too. I'm glad I didn't give into my laziness and just got up and did it. Thank the Lord for pushing me towards doing the right thing.

Being a mother is probably the hardest job I've ever had. After an eight hour day of work and rushing to get my training in, I get to take care of my little guy. It's the best job I've ever had, but the worse paying too LOL. It's been a tough week for my little guy since it looks like he maybe getting some teeth coming in. I've been a little sleep deprived this week; which has hurt my training on Monday because I was too tired to go. Instead of going I took a nap. Luckily I have the best husband, and he took care of our baby the following night so I would be well-rested for today's workout. I'm not sure what it was today, but as I was running I could feel that it was harder for me to breathe so I ran slower than normal. I got a little dizzy and felt weak during my workout. My husband informed me it could be what I ate or maybe I was dehydrated. I think it was me being dehydrated because I didn't drink as much water today, so now I know I need to drink more water because I can't be falling behind on my training. I'm praying tomorrow will be a better day, and that God will allow me to be stronger and better tomorrow.

Yesterday, was the first day of my official training day for my run in April. My husband was by my side helping train me. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. He had me warm up then walk 3 minutes, run one mile, walk 3 minutes and run one mile until I ran three miles. The toughest part about the run was watching my husband eat pizza. I knew Planet Fitness served pizza and bagels once a month, but I never had been to the gym while it was being served. But towards the end, I forgot about the pizza because I was so ready to get my three miles in. I did however reward myself after my run and ate one slice of pizza as my dinner.

We arrived in Colorado this morning and I took a walk in the afternoon. What an amazing view! I can't wait for tomorrow's jog since I was enjoying a quite walk after our plane ride.

Feeling exhausted...
I went to the gym today with my friend Lorna. I enjoy going to a gym where I don't feel like I'm the most out of shape or feel shy because I don't know how to use a machine. I ran my two miles (slower today), but I did it nonstop. I'm still working on my endurance for the run in April. I feel so exhausted but if I don't get up and get things done I'll be exactly where I was yesterday. So we are going on a family trip for a few days and I'm trying to figure out how I am going to get my daily workout outs in. I've packed everything I need, but AHH I'm going on vacation.... shouldn't I be relaxing? Well my plan is to workout while we are there. I pray God gives me the motivation to keep working hard and my husband to keep me on track. I'm excited to take Victor on his first trip too. I have never brought a baby on an airplane before so this will be a learning situation for me too. Ok I really should rest before we leave in three hours!

Finding God
For the first time at church last Sunday, I began to feel the spirit of God. I don’t know what came over me, but I was standing in the pews and the pastor told us to praise God. He said don’t ask God for anything just praise him, and that’s what I did. I have never cried in church before and today I did. As I was thanking God for what a blessed life he has given me then tears just came down. It was a feeling I haven’t felt for a long time. It’s been a long time since I last felt close to my Lord. I have distant myself from God for a few years now, and I want to go back. I want to be close to God again. He has always been there for me and I lost track of that. I am thankful he never let me go and he was always there when I forgot about him. I was living a life full of sin and didn’t even realize it. I am still on my journey to understand and worship God because I have so much learning to do and so much praise I need to give Him. I thank God everyday for sending me my husband and my son. My husband is an amazing man and he’s been helping me with my faith since the day we decided we were going to be together. I had a dream within the first week of us living together. All I can remember was my husband was holding me in his arms and there was a bright light shining on us. I tried to open my eyes but the light was too bright my eyes wouldn’t open, but his eyes were open and he kept encouraging me to open my eyes. I kept trying and trying but the light was too bright. I woke up from the dream not being able to open my eyes to that light. I didn’t know what my dream was telling me, but now I realize that light was God. I haven’t given Him my whole heart that’s why I couldn’t open my eyes. I am ready now. I am ready to give him my whole heart,and I believe if I do this I will able to do anything he has planned for me.

This is my first blog since I can remember. I am doing this for myself and to track my progress as I am working towards my first half marathon. I have been out of shape and I need motivation to keep working hard towards my health goals. I am not looking for followers, but if I get some then that’s great! Here are a few goals I want to achieve and by putting them on here I will feel obligated to do them:
Post daily on my progress Work out daily (minus my rest days) Eat better Stay positive Make time for myself to reflect Spend more time with my son and husband Stay on top of schoolwork Appreciate what God has given me Praise God more Be thankful more
I’ll add more goals as I come up with more.
