Clocking a new Asian record and going under three minutes at the recent World Championships has given the Indian men’s 4x400m relay team a boost of confidence that they hope will not just help them at the Asian Games but also push them to go all the way to the Paris Olympics next year.
Back to training at the SAI Centre in Thiruvananthapuram now, the quartet of Amoj Jacob, Mohd. Ajmal, Mohd. Anas Yahiya and Rajesh Ramesh have set bigger targets for themselves.
“We are done with our recovery and are now focussing on the conditioning. Up next will be the Grand Prix (in Chandigarh) on the 10th and we hope to do well and stay injury-free,” Amoj told media on Saturday.
