NEW DELHI: Gulveer Singh ended 2024 on the best possible note by setting a new national record in the men's 10,000m event at the Hachioji Long Distance 2024 athletics meet in Japan last week in a chart topping display.
The previous record had also stood in Gulveer's name but his new mark of 27:14.88s was almost 27 seconds better than his previous best of 27:41.81, which had also come earlier this year and broken Surendra Singh's longstanding record, which had stood since 2008.
