The 26-year-old also won a silver medal in the javelin with a throw of 42.41m, coming in second to newly reinstated national athlete Evalyn Palabrica in a highly competitive event.

Eto po kasi parang enjoyment na lang po, dagdag sa training, so alam ko po yung weakness ko so kailangan ko siyang trabahuin pa poDespite her efforts, Dequinan still feels that she is not fully prepared for the upcoming SEA Games due to her own fears. So today po parang tinitignan ko kung ano yung mga kulang ko pa.
