MASAYANG ibinahagi ng mag-asawang Alfred at Yasmine Vargas na nakabalik na sa swimming ang kanilang anak na si Cristiano.
Sa post ng mag-asawa kahapon sa kanilang social media, ibinahagi nila ang iba’t ibang pictures at video na nagpapakita ng pakikipagtunggali muli ng kanilang anak.
“Returning to the pool at the Milo Swim Competition after a long absence from the sport he loves so much, he delivered his best performances yet, improving in every single event and posting personal best times across the board,” wika ni Yasmine.
“What made it even more special was seeing him race with the bigger kids in the 9-10-year-old division and show his strength in the pool,” pagmamalaki ng misis ni Alfred.
Ibinahagi rin ni Yasmine ang pagkapanalo ni Cristiano.
“On his long-awaited return to competition, he earned Most Outstanding Swimmer (MOS), Category A, making it his second consecutive year as a Most Outstanding Swimmer at the Milo Competition,” aniya.
“The stopwatch never lies. Genuine character transcends distortion & distractions. And God really protects and blesses the good and faithful hearted. We are so proud of you, anak!” pagmamalaki pa ng mag-asawa.
Narito ang buong post ni Yasmine na ukol sa pagbabalik-swimming ng anak.
“Our comeback kid!
After months of serious challenges, setbacks, and deprived opportunities, Cristiano was finally able to compete in swimming once again. And what a comeback it was.
Returning to the pool at the Milo Swim Competition after a long absence from the sport he loves so much, he delivered his best performances yet, improving in every single event and posting personal best times across the board.
What made it even more special was seeing him race with the bigger kids in the 9-10-year-old division and show his strength in the pool.
Cristiano persevered and never gave up despite all the noise, obstacles, and distractions. He stayed focused, trusted the process, and rose to the occasion.
On his long-awaited return to competition, he earned Most Outstanding Swimmer (MOS), Category A, making it his second consecutive year as a Most Outstanding Swimmer at the Milo Competition.
Our deepest gratitude to Coach Manny Thruelen for taking Cristiano under your wing even though you are already retired from coaching.
Thank you for welcoming him, believing in him when he needed it most, and generously sharing your time, knowledge, and heart. Your guidance, patience, and unwavering support helped make this comeback possible. We will always be grateful for the impact you have made on Cristian’s journey.
Thank you as well to the swimming community for the warmth, support, and love we received that day. Thank you to our former Brittany Swimming Team for cheering Cristiano on.
And thanks also to his former coaches, Coach Gary and Coach JM, for their continued support and for cheering him on despite no longer being his coaches.
Hard work always rewards those who persevere and trust the long and arduous process.
The stopwatch never lies.
Genuine character transcends distortion & distractions.
And God really protects and blesses the good and faithful hearted.
We are so proud of you, anak!
Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam!”
