KOLKATA: Kishore Kumar Jena couldn’t have hoped for a better season last year as he finished fifth in the World Championships and then grabbed silver in Asian Games with a throw of 87.54m. It wasn’t only his personal best but it also helped him beat the Olympic qualification mark of 85.5m and qualify for the Paris Olympics.
And with Olympics just about five months away, Kishore is sweating it out now with his coach Samarjeet Singh Malhi and physio Mayur Kumar Thakkar at the Performance Centre in Gold Coast Australia since February 5.
