Cozumel News 2021: Ironman Cozumel 2021, COVID 19 Semaforo Update, Cozumel Public Schools Returning to the Classroom next Week, and more!
Ironman Cozumel 2021
Cozumel will once again proudly host the Ironman Competition on November 21. This full ironman is a triathlon consisting of swimming, biking, and running. Annually athletes from all over the world come to our beautiful island to compete.
If you are not competing, come put to enjoy the competition and cheer the athletes on.
Swim
The swimming stage of IRONMAN Cozumel is one of the most spectacular in the world. The great visibility of water and the huge amount of underwater life that accompanies the athletes throughout the course, turns this stage into one unforgettable experience.
Bike
Athletes will do three laps around the island to complete the 180 kms (112 miles) of the bike course. The route covers amazing Oceanside roads, the luxurious hotel zone and a bit of the city, this fast and beautiful route guarantees an exciting bike stage, ideal for those who want an IRONMAN PR.
Run
The run course is flat and passes through many of Cozumel’s signature sites, including its waterfront walk, downtown main plaza and historic neighborhoods. Hundreds of spectators cover the sidewalks to watch and cheer for the athletes to give their best until they reach the finish line, which is located at the City Hall Plaza in downtown Cozumel.

COVID 19 Semaforo Update
As of a week ago, there was nothing current posted to the ¨State Traffic Light of Epidemiological Risk¨ for our state. Today I checked the site, and the report is for November 8 through November 14.
Both the Northern and Southern portions of our state, Quintana Roo, are still in the green. The green means we are functioning at 80% capacity with all the safety.
Cozumel Public Schools Returning to the Classroom next Week
A number of students will be returning to their Cozumel public schools next week. My granddaughter will be attending a two-hour class three days per week starting next Tuesday.
Following safety protocols of face masks, safe distancing, and sanitation, only twelve children will be attending per session.
Unfortunately, not all schools are opening. My son works at one that has no running water and is without power. The students registered at that school will continue online classes.

The Cozumel Sun Website
We will be revamping our website over the next few months. The process is tedious, as we will also be updating information. Please excuse any inconvenience as we try to make the website easier to utilize.
Business Directory – If your business is listed, check, and make certain the information is still accurate. However, if your business or service is not listed, email us the information, the service is FREE.
Donate and Volunteer – Community Organizations please make certain the information on your non-profit is accurate. This is the perfect time to submit new photographs and update your organization’s wish list.
Medication on Hand
We will be donating the medication that we have on hand to the Medical Infirmary of Todos Somos Cozumel. As of today we have Levodropropizina 600 mg., Discral Sucralfato 1 g., Alpharma 80 mg., Cinarizina 75mg., Mipramid 10mg. (2), Beclometasona 50 mg. Inhaler (3), and Clonazepan 2 mg. (2).
We will once again start collecting medication to donate! We also have Medical Equipment to loan and donate. Please find a complete description of The Cozumel Sun Community Program in The Cozumel Sun Home page.
The Cozumel Sun Book Exchange
The book exchange is an enormous success. New people continue to trickle in. The number of books in stock grows as people finally find a place to store their books.
We are constantly shuffling things around to accommodate the increasing number of books.
Safety Precautions
We disinfect all incoming books and puzzles. We clean and disinfect daily. Disinfectant gel and Lysol spray are available for your use right as you enter.
Please Browse!
The store originally catered 80% to students. There was little to no income after school closure due to the pandemic. We are constantly adding new products and services in hopes to generate income from other sources.
Unfortunately, my hopes that the traffic to the book exchange would generate sales is not functioning. Furthermore, we have had little to no response in the advertisements in Facebook.
