Cebu’s Brittney Canete to Chabot College in California
May 11, 2018
Cebu’s Brittney Canete, 18, will be attending Chabot College in Hayward, San Francisco Bay Area, California.
While Brittney Canete, whose family has moved to the United States, opted to join the coach, there a the suggestion of another coach who has been very helpful towards pinoyathletics.info.
Also, Brittney Canete has a PB of 12.2 (hand-timed), she was the 2015 National Milo Little Olympics Champion with 12.3, where she beat multiple futures Palaro Champion Jessel Lumapas.
And in the 2016 CVRAA meet, she ran her 12.2 PB, beating Samantha Limos; Limos went onto win the 2016 Palaro and broke the Palaro Record in the 100.
Yet unfortunately, in 2016, Palaro Canete tore her hamstring in the 200m.
And hopped and fought her way to finish 2nd in her heat and qualify for the final.
Hence she wasn’t able to attend.
So now, at Chabot training with coach Craft, she is being revived.
While Pinoyathletics.info is keen to track her performances and Filipino track athletes opt to study with the benefits of competing in the United States.
While Canete started competing as a 12-year-old from Ateneo Cebu, she was highly motivated to continue her athletic career. She was almost prepared to walk away from the sport a year ago.
Yet, she decided to take the opportunity that presented itself at Chabot.
While in Cebu, her coach was primarily sprinter Anthony Santillan and National Junior record holder Daniel Noval for a short period of time.
UPDATE
Canete reports she is recovering well.
And her new coach has given her a very well-structured program.
Also involving lots of single-leg isolation type exercises to help strengthen her hamstrings.
And legs and Core Exercises for stability.
Also, following the advice of a PT.
So she is now able to train without too much discomfort.
And it will be interesting to see how she progresses in the US Collegiate season shortly.
While she may even be focussing on Hurdles as well.
