Celebrity chef Hilda Baci claimed that on the days of her culinary marathon, she could still see the monthly flow.
The record-breaking chefs revealed this in a TV3 interview.
Hilda Baci said:
“I was on my period the entire time and that made it extremely difficult and extra hard. What that meant was it took away from the time that I had to rest.
“I was trying to rack up because I get 5 minutes every time I complete 1 hour. So if I stand for one hour I have 5 minutes to rest. And I still had to do my medical checks. God bless my medical team. They were on the ground.
“Because I was on my period I had to take a shower every single break I had. If I had 30 minutes I had to take a shower during that time because I had to change.
“My dad was worried because I have horrible cramps. Like really horrible cramps. So pushing through that means I can conquer things in this life.”
