Five-time Southeast Asian (SEA) Games gold medalist Agatha Wong wouldn’t have won all those medals had she not devoted much of her time in training. To make things tougher in the 32nd edition of the biennial meet, the 25-year-old wushu champion had to do a balancing act between studying medicine and working out with the national team. Nonetheless, she was able to conquer the taijiquan-taijijian event in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
Further proof that her time management and multi-tasking skills are also gold medal-worthy is an Instagram entry that the pride of Quezon City made on Monday night detailing the super-hectic schedule she braved in the past few days.
“In 10 days,” she began her post.
Are you ready for this? Apparently, she accomplished in ten days what regular people wouldn’t be able to in a month or two. But hey, Wong is by no means regular. From her sporting career alone, it’s obvious that she belongs in a special class of athletes.
And now, outside of competition, being able to fulfill her duties as a medical student, a commercial model, and as an ambassador for Philippine sports, all while making time for her social life, it is crystal clear that Agatha is by no means ordinary.
Perhaps the secret behind it all is being able to embrace every challenge that comes her way. Maybe that’s why she ended her IG post by describing the level of passion she has at the moment.
“I love what I do,” Wong wrote.
With the exuberance she’s displaying, it seems like bigger things are yet to come for Queen Agatha.
