NEW DELHI: It was a script Gulveer Singh would not have dreamt of when he left for the Hachioji Long Distance 2024 athletics meet in Japan last week.
The long-distance Indian runner was elated when he got the news of the birth of his second child, a baby girl - in his village Sirsa in Western UP's Atrauli district - soon after setting a new national record in the men's 10,000m event at the Kamiyugi Park athletic stadium last Saturday.
