Currently in Bangkok for the Asian Athletics Championships, Parul is confident of a good show in the upcoming season where she'll represent the country at the World Athletics Championships in Budapest and the Asian Games in Hangzhou.
For the last three months, the 28-year-old has been involved in "high-altitude training" at the athletics base in Colorado Springs, US. The base is situated at an altitude of 1,800m above sea level.
