Track: Tarlac Circuit Hill
Qualifying: 4th Place
Race 11: 2nd Place
Iβm always grateful for the opportunity to attend Mass before the race. It gives me a peaceful heart and a lighter feeling before facing the challenges on the track. π
Two days before the race, I had a crash where I slid and then high-sided at the last corner. I had some body pains afterward, but I pushed through and managed to complete at least one training session the day before the race.
During qualifying, I finished P4. Despite still feeling some pain from the crash, I gave everything I had and did my best.
For Race 11, I started P4 on the grid. Thankfully, I had a great start and immediately moved up to P3. I pushed hard to catch the rider in P2, but I started getting tired quickly because of the pain I was still feeling.
In the final laps, one of the riders ahead of me crashed, allowing me to move up to P2. From there, I stayed safe, stayed focused, and brought the bike all the way to the finish line. π
First and foremost, I give thanks to God. I am truly grateful to my team Watanabe Riding Development for their unwavering support and encouragement, especially Coach Dashi Watanabe, Coach Justine Javier, Coach Sandrix Juanillo, as well as the entire crew and mechanics. I would also like to thank to all our sponsors, especially Boss Mike Yap and Boss Jerico Page, for their constant support and belief in our team. β€οΈ
