CEBUANO duathlete Joland Olmilla won’t be suiting up in today’s 11th San Francisco Camotes Cross-Country Mountain Bike Challenge after suffering a bruised right hand last Thursday.
The 23-year old Olmilla of Cabancalan, Mandaue told CDN that he injured his right hand during a bike accident three days ago.
“Nadisgrasya ko sa bike, niya dili jud madala sa right hand nako. Sakit jud kaayo. Ang mga bato naa pa jud sa sulod sa unod,” said Olmilla who made the National Duathlon Team last year.
However, he assures that his injury won’t stop him from competing in the second leg of the Pilipinas Duathlon next month in General Trias, Cavite.
Olmilla who finished 10th in the opening leg last February is doubtful on making it to the top three in Cavite which he described as star-studded.
“Ang goal nako kay makasulod sa Top 3 pero murag maglisod ko kay daghan og veteran duathletes nganhi sa Pilipinas. Step by step lang sa ko kay one year pako sa duathlon. Happy pud ko kay sa one year, layo-layo na ako na-abtan,” Olmilla added.
