00:00Inspiration and hope, that's what the Pinoy Olympians gave, especially the double Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo to the Filipino athletes.
00:12Among the fans of the Parade of the Pinoy Olympians are the student-athletes who want their idols to be happy.
00:20That's what Mark Salazar is talking about.
00:24Many of the supporters of Carlos Yulo are student-athletes.
00:32One of them is Gio Mislang, who fights in the track and field in Nueva Ecija and has long been a fan of the life of Carlos Yulo.
00:42I was so inspired by his training, how he wakes up, how he fights in his training.
00:49I was so touched because even though I'm just a simple player, I give my best in every training so that I can use the gold medal.
00:58Gio is also an artist and Carlos is the inspiration of his works.
01:03I was so touched by his story, that's why I made him my idol, that's why I made him my inspiration in drawing.
01:12Earlier, while waiting for Carlos Yulo, Gio in Luneta, he sketched the Eiffel Tower of Paris.
01:20Even if he doesn't finish it, he will still reach Carlos as a gift.
01:26If I have a chance to give my painting, I will give it to him.
01:31It feels so good to be an artist and an athlete.
01:36Until now, Gio's idol rides a big float that seems impossible to approach.
01:44Applause!
01:49The float stopped and the fans had a chance to get an autograph, including Gio.
01:56No, it's Gio.
01:58It's worth it, I'm tired, I'm happy.
02:03You will see this, I'm happy and he signed what I did earlier.
02:08Gio said that Carlos is an idol because he gave hope to the athletes that they can reach the top despite the limitations of the athletes in the Philippines.
