Special thanks to Thad Moren for providing background info and stats. At the same time, we continue our write-ups on Fil-Heritage Track and Field athletes. We have covered Kyla and Kayla Richardson, Krizia Apelar, Sarah Vitug, Caleb Monticalvo, Julio Alorro, and Jonelle Halog. The next feature is on a much younger emerging athlete.

Also, Morenn was the US Champion for her age, having thrown 38.48m with the senior 600-gram javelin. At the same time, this performance ranked her sixth on the Philippine Ranking list against seniors. And third amongst the juniors. Furthermore, the junior list is headed by National Record Holder Evalyn Palabrica (45.63m). At the same time, High school record holder Stephanie Cimatu (40.18m) was second. Most noteworthy is that the performance also places Cerah seventh on the junior all-time list for the Philippines.
As a result, Moren beat 39 competitors her age to win her age group’s US National title.
While Moren, who weighs 48kg, undergoes weight workouts. It also has power cleaned 54kg and squatted 112kg+.
Hence Cerah is aiming to represent the Philippines at the 2015 World Youth Championships in Colombia. However, as of now, the 2013 standard for the Javelin is 46.00m. Most noteworthy is that Cerah would have to break the existing Filipino Junior Record to qualify.

Fil-Heritage development athlete 15-year-old Cerah Morenn threw the javelin a personal best distance of 38.74m (600 grams adult-sized javelin) at a meet in Turlock, California.
Cerah Morenn, who holds the best age grade records for ages 10-14, surpassed the former record for 15-year-olds of Stephanie Cimatu 36.64m (but with a lighter 500-gram javelin).
Cerah Morenn also established a new age grade record for 15 years old’s in Hammer 25.63m (no previous mark).
Cerah Morenn, eligible to compete for the Philippines, having presented a philippine passport to the PATAFA, should be considered a Moren developmental athlete as throwers tend to peak in their late 20s or early 30s.
