so this was originally reported by her Coach Joey Ming Lao of UST. While later verified by Asian Athletics Statistician Heinrich Hubbeling. Also, PATAFA Chief Field Judge Jeanette Obiena verified that this was indeed the correct weight.
While this improved on Aira’s previous mark of 40.70m set at the UAAP 17th February 2016.
Also, Aira was a member of the ASEAN School Games Team 2014. While she originally hails from Silay City, Negros Occidental. Also originally a Discus Thrower she has transitioned well into the Hammer Throw.
While Teodosio’s new improvement is the #2 all-time performance. Also after former national athlete Loralie Sermona National Record of 50.55m which was set in Pune, India in 2013. While the bronze medal in the last SEA Games in Hammer was 53.80m. So as of now, there is a lot of work to do as 43.39m will land sixth place based on 2015.

Recruited by UST Teodosio. Rates her sports heroes as Four Times SEA Games Gold Medalist Arniel Ferrera and SEA Games 2011 Bronze Medalist Loralie Sermona.
Aira has a very high goal of making the Olympic Games. Considering our last representation at this level was by Josephine Dela Vina who holds the oldest records in the books in Discus (54.75, 1971) and Juniors (48.48, 1965) placed 11th at the Olympic Games in this event in the late 60s and early 70s.

I choose UST because of the better opportunities that for sure await me. I believe UST will bring out the best in me in any aspect of my life.
