Renato Unso ‘The Heartbreak Kid’ who shattered the national record.
The Philippines enjoyed a fabulous streak in the early 80s at SEA Games with three 400 Hurdlers in 1981 Grafillo, 1983 Unso and 1985 Arnillo claiming the 400 Hurdle crown. It was Renato Unso who at these games would set the undisputed Philippine Record of 51.26 which till this day remains untouched.
Unso was born 25th of April 1957 orphaned at the age of nine he overcame poverty. In fact, it was poverty and its many challenges that molded him to become a Sea Games gold medalist, teacher, motivational speaker and formerly as Dean of Human Kinetics of the PUP.
He won the 1978 Palarong Pambansa Tertiary 110 Hurdles in 15.5 but finished second in the 400 Hurdles to Angelito Aguilar who went onto set a meet record later on (54.6 to 55.2).
Gintong Alay Coach Tony Benson said Unso had the makings of a world class hurdler. However in Manila it seemed Unso cracked under the pressure of a home crowd.
At his first SEA Games in 1981 Unso finished last in the 110 Hurdles final, he was credited with a very fast 14.5 hand timed in the heats which may have seen him close to a medal in the final if he had the same type of run. He won the second heat of the 400 Hurdles in 53.32 beating Nyan Chong-Jong of Malaysia. In the final he finished fourth and just 6/100th outside a medal in fourth in the 400 Hurdles with a time of 53.46. Team mate Grafilo won the race going onto set an electronic Filipino National Record at 52.19, with Chong-Jong taking Silver.(*The best mark at that time was Abdul Guipaur hand-time from 1974 of 51.8).
Unso was given the label of ‘The Heartbreak kid’ by news reporters. “Oh yes i remember i went under instead of over. I was a certainty that lost” he later told a reporter.
“I cannot forget that season, but my mind was never set on it then.” he said of 1981 SEA Games.
At the Palaro open division in 1982 in 15.4 aswell as the 400 Hurdles in 54.4. Later that year Unso would break through to his first international win at the ASEAN Cup winning the 400 Hurdle title. He returned a different athlete at the next SEA Games.
Leading upto the SEA Games Unso clocked 52.01 at the National Championships erasing the National Record set by Jaime Grafillo.
At these games he won heat 1 of the 110 Hurdles beating Heru Prayogo of Indonesia with the fasest qualifying time of 14.80. However in the final in a hairline finish Prayogo took the gold 14.75 to 14.76. Unso time of 14.76 however broke the nine year old National Record of Marcelo Benauro and stood until 1997.
The greatest race of his career would come in a superb 400 Hurdles final where he led from start to finish .
Unso recorded a time of 51.26 to win the 1983 SEA Games in Singapore which until this day is the National Record 30 years on, this would be the last time Unso would compete at the SEA Games.
After the 1983 Asian Championships Unso decided to retire early at the age of 26 after tearing his hamstring in Kuwait. “Im not even going to go back to running.” “Last Weeks Asian Champs was my swan song”. He took up a role with the Gintong Alay as a coach “Now ill just worry about passing on my knowledge to youngsters coming into the Gintong Alay scheme”
Unso did however make a return at the 1986 ASEAN Track and Field Champs in Singapore with bronze in the 110 Hurdles in a time of 15.21.

*Articles collected from the Manila Standard news reel archive. Articles are by many different writers.

The Palarong Pambansa was cancelled from 1984 to 1987 due to the events leading upto during and preceding the EDSA Revolution. The historic meet was revised in 1988 by then DEPED Head Aparacio Mequi. The 1988 edition was held at Misamis Oriental in Northern Mindanao.
While the results of 1988 where far from impressive compared to the pre 1983 editions, some new talents did emerge. On Day 1 (article above) a 15 year old from NCR named Robert Raquita won the 1500m erasing the 1982 Palaro Record.
The following day on March 16 (Day 2) Ferdinand Quitola wins Boys 3000 Meters.

Josephine de la Vina Untouched Discus Records (rev 1)
This week we will look at the Philippines Women’s Discus record. I would like to welcome all the the story behind the countries greatest ever female thrower as she is inducted into Pinoyathletics ‘Legends of Track and Field’.
.
Fil-Heritage Origins
Born in Cebu on April 15, 1946. Josephine de la Vina would go onto set a legacy in Philippine Athletics that has not been matched. She got her earliest contact to sports playing first base for the softball team of Labangon at Cebu Elementary school. Becoming part of the CIT (Cebu Institute of Technology) where promising athletes were properly developed. ‘Big Jo’ as she became known due to her height at 6’0 was exceeding tall for a Filipina especially in those days, would excel in Shotput, Discus and Javelin.
Jo recalled
“Every time I’d win in an international meet, tears would fill my eyes when the Philippine tri-color was hoisted and the band played the National Anthem. Although my father is Mexican I believe I should remain a Filipino. I am proud to be one.”
.De la Vina the countries greatest ever female thrower at the height of her powers in the 1960s and 1970s
Dela Vina was at the height of her powers in the 1960s and 1970s.
Judging on the age of some first sea games participants (Lydia was 15 and Elma 14 when they debuted for the Philippines in relays) it wouldn’t be out of the question to think De la Vina might have competed in the SEA Games in 1961 in Rangoon or then known as the SEA Peninsula Games.
(It has been noted that the Philippines was not a part of the SEA Peninsula Games so Dela Vina did not participate in this meet)
.
The National Junior Record in Discus
At then 16 years of age de la Vina competed at her first ever Asian Track and Field Championships winning the bronze in 37.79m which was then a Senior and national junior record. It was two years later at the Tokyo Olympics de la Vina then aged 18 would throw 42.27m further improving these marks.
“We verified from our 1965 National Open Championships results in Manila that Josephine de la Vina indeed threw 158’9″ (48.38meters, fraction of centimeters is downgraded)” from PATAFA reply email.
.
The Countries Greatest Female Thrower
De la Vina the teenager lass who had won the bronze at the 1962 Asiad, returned knowing she must do better at the next Asian Games in 1966 (Asian Games held every four years). de la Vina set a new games record in the qualifying round of 47.40 and she further improved the record in the final. Her throw of “156’1 1/2 inches” or 47.58m secured her the gold medal in the final. She also threw ’41’4 1/2′ or 12.61m to place fourth in the Womens Shotput. Josephine Dela Vina a pretty 6ft civil engineering student collected a gold medal for the Philippines in a games record throw (Strait Times). She cracked the record of 45.90m (150ft 7 1/4 inches) set by K. Murase of Japan at the last Asian Games.
In fact a meeting of Asian Track and Field statisticians named her the ‘most confident athlete of the Asian Games’ (Strait Times). I’m not sure how confidence is measured?
Dela Vina also held the Womens Shotput Record from 1970 to 1975 with a throw of 13.89m in Los Angeles, which stood until it was broken by Consuela Salibis-Lacusong who still holds the record today at 13.92m.
Dela Vina would go on to represent the country in three olympic games 1964, 1968, 1972.
Her throws of 42.27, 46.58 and 53.92 landed her 18th, 15th and 14th in the Olympic Games Discus
She also set an untounched record in the Discus at 54.71m at Bakersfield, USA on 10/7/1971. Remarkably De la Vina shares the unique feat of being Asian Games champion 1966 (47.58m), Asian Track and Field Champion 1973 (50.74m) shared only with Lydia De Vega-Mercado.
de la Vina mark of 1973 ’166’5 3/4′ (50.74m) in Manila was a new Asian Record breaking the 1970 Record established at the Asian Games by Taruko Yagashita.

Milo Little Olympics Background
(Aug 27) In the hearts of little champions, big dreams are waiting to come to life. Back then, these dreams partially comes to life in small town tournaments, local inter-school leagues and even informal street competition amongst friends. In the true spirit of building champions in life, MILO® saw the growing need for these little champions’ big dreams to come front and center.
In 1988, MILO® launched the MILO® Little Olympics in Manila. The league held competitions in 11 sports namely – athletics, badminton, chess, football, gymnastics, lawn tennis, sepak takraw, swimming, table tennis, taekwondo and volleyball. And though the league was initially based in Manila, many little champions savored the taste of what it is like to have their dream of playing in a big stage come true. That is why in 1996, the MILO® Little Olympics was also held in Cebu. And expanded to Cagayan de Oro in 1997 and in Pangasinan in 1998. In the short span of time, MILO® has successfully provided a sporting event that little champions look forward to other than Palarong Pambansa and as well as other major sporting events in the south.
After years of successfully mounting regional games, the MILO® Little Olympics finally went nationwide with the first ever National Finals held in Cebu City on October 23, 2009. With the Queen City of the South serving as host, little champions from all over the nation came and competed for glory. Thousands of little champions got to play, thousands of big dreams came true. The MILO® Little Olympics is now the premiere nationwide junior interschool league for elementary and highschool student-athletes. Little champions nationwide can now show their excellence in sports, their drive, determination, discipline and other champion’s values to their peers throughout the nation. This kind of exposure teaches them to be champions not just in sports but in life as well.
In its 20 years as an inter-regional league and three years as a premiere annual national sports meet, the MILO® Little Olympics has produced and discovered little champions that have donned the country’s colors. Little champions with big achievements in international leagues like the South East Asian Games, World Youth Cup and the Asian Junior Track meet.
Great things truly start from small beginnings. It began with the need for little champions to have a place where their big dreams will come true. Now, the MILO® Little Olympics, with the help of the little champions, parents, coaches and organizers, has now become one of the most recognizable and sought-after league. A sporting event where every game and every match helps build champions in sports and in life.

REVOLUTION GRASSROOTS: Insights advocacy of RUN FOR CHANGE
Revolution from the grassroots: Insights on the advocacy of RUN FOR CHANGE
By: Airnel T. Abarra
Participants of the athletics clinic powered by RUN FOR CHANGE. “L-R Jerby Deriada, Edgar Bardel, Ian delos Santos, Isidro del Prado, Jr, Mr. Albert Abarquez – Laguna Provincial Sports and Games Development Office Head, Karl Francisco, Christopher Ulboc, Jr, Joanne Lu, Provincial Board Member Neil Andrew Nocon, Atty. Eric Pasion, Jesson Ramil Cid, Emmanuel delos Angeles, and Coach Airnel Abarra (far right).
“Why go to Manila, if Manila can come to you”. This was the statement of Atty. Eric Pasion, of RUN FOR CHANGE (Run4change, Inc.) in their recently concluded Track and Field clinic held at the Laguna Sports Complex, Sta. Cruz, Laguna last November 11. The clinic allowed high school student-athletes from Del Remedio National High School, San Pablo City and selected athletes from the Division of Laguna meet, greet and train with the athletes supported by RUN FOR CHANGE. It was a start to their program of sharing their talents and demonstrating the latest training techniques they’ve learned down to the community level as part of their quest to support total grassroots development in Athletics.
RUN FOR CHANGE started as a student organization dedicated to supporting road runs in the University of the Philippines, Diliman by providing logistical support to race organizers. Eventually it evolved as one of the more established race organizers and event managers in the country with numerous successful road-racing events.

Tapping the resources and knowledge of well-seasoned university athletes and aided by the managerial skills of their core group, RUN FOR CHANGE not only organizes races but has now evolved into an organization that provides support to athletes competing at National and International competitions. Athletes belonging to their group were overall champions for the Men’s Division in the 2011 and 2012 Philippine National Games. Athletes from their selection team in turn represented the country overseas to participate in competitions such as the Hong Kong Inter-city Athletic Meet, the Singapore Open and most recently, in the Thailand Open. Most notable of their performances was that of Jesson Ramil Cid who captured the Gold for the Men’s Decathlon and almost broke the national record which was established in 2001. As early as now, the athletes of RUN FOR CHANGE are preparing to defend their title as the Men’s Overall Champion in the 2013 Philippine National Games which will be held in Lingayen, Pangasinan this May.

What sets RUN FOR CHANGE apart from other organizations is the fact that they are a non-profit organization. The proceeds of their racing events go into supporting athletes and providing assistance for grassroots development programs in different communities. “It is not enough that you are good. If you are good, you must share your talents with others.” says Atty. Pasion.
RUN FOR CHANGE believes that in order to strengthen the talent pool for track and field, young and aspiring athletes should be given a chance to be exposed to new and progressive training techniques and at the same time, coaches should also get the best education that can be offered. Opportunities to learn should always be at the forefront of development.
Prime movers- Atty. Eric Pasion and Joanne Lu of RUN FOR CHANGE strikes a pose during the Athletics Clinic
With their experience in Sta. Cruz, Laguna, RUN FOR CHANGE looks forward to engaging more communities in the future. They are looking into opening their doors and transforming this simple meet and greet / track and field clinic into an institutionalized program of support for grassroots development with proper coordination with local government units with the support of corporate sponsors. Through this, talent identification at the grassroots level will be much better, which in the long run, will strengthen the base of Philippine Athletics. If you want to help this kind of advocacy, you can contact RUN FOR CHANGE or send email to pinoyathletics@gmail.com.
