National Open Athletics Championships:<\/b> Karnataka\u2019s international sprinter Manikanta Hoblidhar suffered stomach cramps but overcame the setback to emerge as the fastest man of the 65th National Open Athletics Championships here at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on Friday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Hoblidhar suffered stomach cramps Thursday night but more than 20 hours later, emerged as the fastest male athlete of the meet, setting the track on fire.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Hoblidhar is a fierce competitor. On Friday evening, he didn\u2019t show any signs of discomfort due to the stomach ailment he suffered the previous night. He clocked 10.25 seconds to win gold, but fell short of improving his own meet record of 10.19 seconds set last year. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI was pretty confident of improving my personal best here in Delhi but missed because of stomach cramps,\u201d the Karnataka sprinter said. \u201cI am happy with my performance as I have been undergoing rehab since April this year,\u201d he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Earlier in the morning session, it was heartbreak for SSCB\u2019s race walker Servin Sebastian. He thought he finished first in the men\u2019s 21km half marathon, but a two-minute penalty for a technical rules violation dashed his hopes of winning gold. He eventually finished fourth with a time of 1:32:46.00.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
