00:00Let's find out the story behind the 17-year-old Davaueño runner, Michail Moreno,

00:08who joined the athletics event of the 11th Vimpiaga Friendship Games in Puerto Princesa, Palawan.

00:14For more details, here is the report of our teammate, Paolo Salamatis.

00:21It's really hard.

00:22We used to eat bananas like that.

00:26Our life there was really hard.

00:29I hope I can achieve my dreams,

00:33that I can help my family.

00:36They are really important to us because they are my inspiration every day,

00:41in my training, in my studies.

00:45I love them.

00:47Behind the pursuit, determination, and perseverance of an athlete

00:52is a deep-rooted connection from past experiences.

00:56Here is one of them, the 17-year-old runner

00:59who grew up in Campo Santos, Marilug District, Davao City, named Michail Moreno.

01:04He is one of seven siblings who grew up in poverty.

01:09His father and mother are both farmers.

01:13There are times when their only food is bananas.

01:18But instead of complaining, he made it his motivation to live.

01:23He started from walking a few kilometers a day,

01:27from their house to his school.

01:30Because of this, it is one of the sports he saw as an opportunity

01:34to use the road to achieve his dream for his family.

01:38But how did he get there?

01:41How did he end up in the world of athletics?

01:44And what was the reason why he chose this kind of sport?

01:50They told me to buy food first.

01:53They also gave me five pesos because it's big for me,

01:57so I was happy.

01:59Then I went to a store,

02:02so I bought food.

02:04That was my training.

02:06In 2018,

02:09I joined the team

02:14because I have potential and endurance

02:19because I walk every day.

02:21In my first round,

02:24I won a gold medal

02:26and they gave me a premium junk food.

02:30When I got home,

02:32I told my mom,

02:34I got food.

02:36She was so happy that I got food.

02:40That's why I continued.

02:42In this kind of happiness that he felt

02:44when he saw his parents smiling,

02:47Moreno encouraged his competitions

02:51from Marilog National High School.

02:54Moreno was recruited from Kalinan National High School

02:57for his talent

03:01because of the facilities of the school.

03:04But it wasn't easy for him

03:07because he had to sacrifice something

03:09far from his family.

03:12I left the school.

03:14I stayed with another family.

03:17My mom and dad are the ones

03:19who make my day.

03:21When I see them,

03:23after class,

03:26they call me mom

03:28and I eat.

03:30I don't know what to do

03:32because I can't stay with them.

03:37It wasn't a problem for Moreno

03:39to stop his beginnings

03:41because aside from the medals

03:43he won in the local tournaments,

03:46he won two medals

03:48and a silver medal

03:50in Indonesia, Malaysia,

03:52Philippines East Asian Growth Area

03:54or Bimpiaga Friendship Games

03:56in Puerto Princesa, Palawan.

03:58He won a silver medal

04:00but despite all his stories,

04:02using sports

04:04is the only thing

04:06Moreno wants to use now.

04:08My goal as an athlete

04:10is to get a scholarship

04:12so that I can study

04:14because I know that one day

04:16I will lose this sport.

04:18My goal is to finish my studies

04:22for my family.

04:24Milchay's story is just one

04:26of many inspirational stories

04:28from different athletes

04:30from all over the Philippines and the world.

04:32But what's exciting here

04:34is how they continued

04:36in the midst of so many challenges in life.

04:38From Puerto Princesa, Palawan
