One of the 19-strong Philippine delegation aspiring for historic medals at the continental meet, Frank made it a point to take the gravity and magnitude of her upcoming responsibilities in the rearview mirror and just focus on what she can do now to help herself. Already exposed to the world of skating, and eventually figure skating, since the tender age of three, Frank has made it a point to tweak her approach to the sport she has known all her life, in order to adapt to new obstacles and opportunities, like her first foray into senior-level competition at the Asian level.
Unfortunately for the Tongkos, Adrian suffered an untimely knee injury while training in Japan and was forced to pull out of the Asian Winter Games mere days before the competition proper. “I’ve seen his videos on Instagram, and they’re sick. I would love to be able to snowboard like that, so I’m really excited.”Though the family reunion-slash-first meeting would have to be put on hold, Frank is nonetheless laser-focused on the task at hand: giving further glory to her family and country, while still tempering expectations for the sake of what’s ultimately more important long-term, her mental stability.
