00:00One of the most popular attractions of Aklan is the island of Boracay.
00:06It is known for its powdery white sand and palm trees.
00:14But we didn't come here to chill and relax.
00:21We came here to challenge our bodies in a triathlon event.
00:26And it's a fierce competition.
00:2936 hours before a race, triathletes eat a lot of carbohydrates.
00:37Or we call it carbo-loading.
00:39Because we know that carbohydrates are what gives us energy.
00:44Tomorrow, when we race, it will be 4 hours non-stop.
00:49Swim, bike, and run.
00:51We won't eat in the middle of the race.
00:53So whatever is stored in your carbohydrate that will give you energy,
00:58you need to eat it first for the past 36 hours.
01:02So now, here in our hotel, Chef Paul is preparing.
01:07Hi, Chef Paul!
01:09A different level of mukbang, carbo-loading.
01:11Hi, Chef Paul!
01:13Did you cook this?
01:15Okay, what did you prepare?
01:18The first dish I prepared is called our power breakfast.
01:21It's a complete set of meals.
01:23It's full of carbohydrates also.
01:26There's hash browns, bread.
01:29Baked beans.
01:31Grilled tomato.
01:33This one is our spaghetti bolognese.
01:36We all know that pasta is a good source of carbohydrates.
01:40This one is our waffles.
01:43The best combo of chicken and waffles.
01:45I just saw that chicken can be partnered with waffles.
01:49Ah, perfect.
01:51What are we having here?
01:53This is our watermelon, mango, and cucumber.
01:57It's a healthy drink.
01:59Okay, I'm going to eat this. Mukbang time!
02:03Carbo-loading is a strategy of athletes to imbue glycogen or energy storage in our body.
02:11To achieve this before the race,
02:13athletes need to eat a lot of foods that are high in carbohydrates.
02:18It's so hard to work as an athlete.
02:22I don't know what to eat first.
02:25This is their spaghetti bolognese.
02:32It's so good.
02:34The pasta is perfectly cooked.
02:40It's so good.
02:42This is their garlic bread with sampaguita.
02:48It's so good.
02:54It's so good.
03:00After the mukbang, I'm ready to join the Boracay Super Triathlon.
03:05The triathlon is an endurance multi-sport where three different athletes compete.
03:19The race starts with swimming.
03:28I'm excited to swim because it's white sand,
03:32so it's a bit different compared to other seas where we swim far away.
03:42They will ride a bicycle.
03:44My favorite part in a triathlon is usually the bike part.
03:52And finally, the running.
03:56I didn't expect that even the running is a mountain.
04:02Because it's really hilly.
04:05Even the running is really hard.
04:09When I heard the announcer say,
04:12Kara, that's your last loop.
04:15I was really tired.
04:16And when I heard the announcer say,
04:20Kara, that's your last loop.
04:23I was really tired.
04:37It's so hard.
04:39I'm running out of energy.
04:47From Team Tri-Kings, our celebrity athlete, Miss Kara David.
04:52They announced that I was first place in my age category of 50 to 59.
04:58I was placed in the age category of 50 to 59.
05:03I wasn't surprised because there are only a few of us who are 50 years old.
05:09From Team Tri-Kings, the lovely Kara David.
05:13Miss Kara, you get second overall.
05:16I was really surprised because I thought I was done.
05:19I was surprised that there are awards for overall.
05:24All the women who raced in that category, the super triathlon.
05:30They ranked who was the fastest.
05:34I was so shocked.
05:36Totally unexpected.
05:38When they called my name,
05:40that apparently among all the females who did the super triathlon,
05:46I was the second fastest.
05:49I was really surprised because I was also the second oldest.
05:53Wow!
05:55I was second overall.
