This achievement is not mine alone—it is the result of countless hours of hard work, sacrifice, dedication, and unwavering support from so many incredible people. Today, we celebrate not just a victory, but the journey that brought us here. This achievement is for all of you☺️ Quintin Jose Pastrana
To my teammates, thank you for showing up every day, even when training was tough and motivation was low. Thank you for pushing through the pain, believing in the process, and helping each other become stronger, better, and more resilient. Every drop of sweat, every challenge, and every sacrifice was worth it because we faced them together.
To our friends from every gym we’ve had the privilege to train in. You have all played a part in helping us grow and improve.
To our families, thank you for being our silent strength. Thank you for your endless support, understanding, prayers, and belief in us. Even when the journey demanded so much of our time and energy, you never stopped cheering for us from the sidelines.
And to our head coach ma’am Estie Gay D Liwanen , thank you for your guidance, patience, and unwavering belief in this team. Thank you for seeing our potential even before we saw it ourselves. Your leadership, dedication, and commitment have made what once seemed impossible become possible.
This achievement belongs to every person who stood with us, believed in us, encouraged us, and helped us along the way. We may be the ones standing on the stage today, but this victory was built by many hands and many hearts.
From the bottom of my hearts, thank you. I am forever grateful.. 🙏🏽
