ten days after starting my next challenge
I share with you what is the word that
more was heard when I tell them that I’m going
to climb the everest in different ways
its structure is summarized to madness and
trying to understand a little the
meaning of the word madness the
deprivation of judgment and reason
being the judgment the faculty of the soul in
determine what is good and what is
wrong because it is false and true I have
asked my soul
if it’s okay to want to go to everest and
she has answered me that she is fine
something said what is madness for many
it’s not for me September 29,
2015
year and a half manaslu the eighth
highest mountain in the world
there he was in the third camp to
three days from the top
a peak that does not have more than 700 meters
of difference that the everest and is a
mountain with the greatest risk for its
avalanches
but that’s not where my madness starts
but years ago where for a long time
I was insisting to a friend that I
It will take you to climb the highest mountains
from mexico with him and his group and I
he said they did not take women because
had previously had a
negative incident with a woman and in
Once he speaks to me and I
says there is a place for you and it was because
one of the people who went to a
expedition had canceled by
work issues in twelve hours that
were twelve hours before he performed
I got borrowed equipment another lorente and
all he had were some boots that
they were new I did not know if the
when and where and use them but
I had bought why they were there
waiting for that opportunity
there I was about to see
the top of mexico the peak of orizaba
That’s when it stopped being a challenge
physical to ask me if I could or not
upload it to where the mountain showed me
its greatness
I got caught and connected with her
it was at that moment where he called it a
passion the orizaba peak was my first
Montana
on February 8, 2014 just three
years I know mountaineering
when they ask me if I dreamed as a child
with going up to the everest and I tell him not to
they come with astonishment because there is a paradigm
that there are times or ages to make
certain things and I think it’s one of
the first paradigms that we have to
throw it away
I do not consider myself a girl with much
physical activity maybe something
overactive would my mother say but to the
ten years to the first thousand 10
kilometers were in February 2011
just six years ago a year I do my
first marathon 42 kilometers
and eight months later I do my
first Olympic triathlon a month from that
I make my first Ironman 70.3 which is the
double what is the lateral tom
Olympic and it was on those dates that I
they invited to climb the peak of orizaba and
still having the lung I had
hours to be doing the activity
physical that was making me questioned that
because I wanted to start with the mountain
tallest in mexico
if I had ignored that at
better I would not have done it would not be
here I would have followed the times of
another person and not mine
when I returned from the peak of orizaba me
I asked the question of what follows
If I had already climbed the mountain more
Mexico’s high that followed and I decided to
the ten months of meeting this challenge
climb the highest mountain in america
that is in aconcagua that is in
Argentina with Cagua was an expedition
of twenty – one days where
even though that again
questioning how it would be that
challenge without having as much experience or not or
simply nothing more with 10 months of
have achieved this when I return from
aconcagua said that it continues and I went to
manaslú I followed the guidelines of my
own dreams not those of someone else
to climb a mountain are required
four things one is the condition
physical
another is the capacity of the body in
adapt to the height to the lack of
oxygen or three
Team knowledge and technique
and the fourth and most important for
I am the mind and it was my strength
will and not that of the legs that
made me go up all of my and more and it gives
the strength of his will that
make it reach its own and more
whatever these are lift the
who has a dream that wants
achieve all we are climbers of
our own tops henry ford said
Whether you think you can or do you think
that you can not be right
I hope that by sharing these
experiences you help them meet
their dreams and do not tell them and I do not say that
your dreams are fulfilled but you
fulfill your dreams
we have to put aside the role of
be victims and to say I do not have the
luck of that person or the money or
The education
when we take the reins of our
life in our hands
It will be the moment when we can meet
all our goals being the only
woman on that expedition had her his
challenges mainly of gender
listening to comments like the woman
once a month is weak while they
they did not even realize it because
He came before them but do not tell him
because we can follow egos or
feelings or comments to be
you do it very well as if the
Expectation that we did it badly
and experience is not what happens to you
but what it does is with what happens to you
and I chose to take all my energy and
focus on meeting my goal to be
here and and go to that expedition of 30
days I had to give up my job of
seven years to return a ring of
commitment
I ‘m currently selling my car
looking for sponsorships to be able
fund the next expedition and it’s
there where I realized that all the
dreams have a cost and that if I
I was willing to pay that cost
I was ready to fulfill it on the day of
Today, each and every one of us is
the sum of all the decisions that
we have taken
only four thousand 469 people have
uploaded to the everest and for me it was a show
see that only 372 women throughout
of history have risen the everest and
they represent only 8.3 percent
At first I felt commitment when I saw
that top of that that number and then
motivation to be a woman and Mexican and go
to raise that percentage what I love
of the mountain is that it does not distinguish
gender and the same cold and height or
the inclination is the same for men
and women
and that’s where I earned the respect in
the mountain December 31, 2014 is
in the aconcagua base camp
we had the expectation that they were going
to give a dinner a little more special for
the occasion and it turns out that they gave us the
same instant asparagus soup and
I saw some faces where they showed true
Well, I dislike some grimaces and other
people who took the deal as if
it was the first time they ate it and I
it was one of them because there was nothing
more I realized that the key to the
happiness or enjoy life consisted
in the gratitude of what we have today without
stop wishing and still wishing and
work in the morning but with
everything you have is not happy with
everything that you lack neither the
happiness for me is a path towards
inside and it’s a pity that now
our young people are deciding what
choose career based on how much they are going to
win when they finish each one of
we have a mission of life and
We have been born with ideal qualities
specific to perform it we choose
well our dreams because they have their
cost to me I realized that when
I was ready to pay the cost of my
dream was ready to fulfill it
in this photo in the hand photo
left the one above
we were on the glacier where you did not
you can hit the road because the risk
of falling from a crack and when I said
yesterday to have to go to the bathroom tells me
Yes of course do it ensures reasons
mine on a rope 34 meters tells me
b and there I had to make the decision if
it was continued or I returned in the photo
below are the nails that I lost in
the course of the expedition and a
injury that I had in yours where several
Sometimes I had to be taking out the
liquid to be able to heal but when
you are willing to pay the price of
those dreams be ready ready to
fulfill them and even then I still
they ask is willing to pay the
cost and the risk to climb the everest
of any amputation or injury or
of the same death and my answer is yes
what is the cost of not daring
if we die today which dreams
they would die with you this will be my
passion for the next two months the
Everest where you have to go up and down
repeated repeatedly to be able
acclimatize
it’s nothing else to get to a camp
local that follows the same as it follows is
get to a camp climb down
again climb to 1 increases that follows
then go back down and it’s one is a
fight with the mind
you really have to be prepared to
that summit to the chasm are scarce five
minutes if it’s not the whole journey what
you live and that’s where the
experience is the top of the manaslú
8,163 meters high where as I said
at the top only five are spent
minutes nothing more and for me the
mountaineering is a journey in
they are very introspective and the reason
to raise the everest for me in what
personal I climb the everest to not
conquer the mountain but to
conquer myself
Thank you
