So its very authentic news. actually I was not questioning the authenticity but I was hoping there was some youtube link for this run as it is a significant NR...................................... In fact when I went to road to rio for men 4*400....and at 3.02.17 if they can achieve it again would place them 13th in the 4*400 list on the average score so that is amazing ..... I am hoping they can have another such run As far as the womens 4*400 it seems really good as we would also add 5 athletes to our quota list .........................................but as my calculations it seems they are 13th not 12th ?....but either way they seem to have put a decent margin in the margin to be at rio Edited June 12, 2016 by nitinsanker strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She got this 2min 5.4s in 800m timing in an event with absolutely no competition for her, I rmbr in the Junior nationals a month back she clocked around 4min 10s, so a 5s improvement in a month. I was just wondering if she can be quickly moved to Europe and compete with Tintu in a couple of events, there's still a month to go for the qualification period to close, and Lily is a junior athlete so can improve much faster than the seniors. Can we somehow contribute here maybe build up an opinion poll quickly on this and share with AFI/PT Usha, even if we are ignored, we can at least make an attempt with facts from our side. Thoughts and opinions from everyone is welcome on this. Edited June 13, 2016 by Sanjib Suneet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should send her to some international meet immediately. She can go down 4 sec in one month considering her fast improvement ability you mentioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been following her for the past week. And she broke a record each day of the west bengal state meet . Everyday her news occupied a significant position in the bengali dailies sports section in the past week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
