Mizuho Park Athletic Stadium: Gulveer Singh scripted a slice of Indian athletics history by becoming the first Indian to win two Asian Games medals in the men’s 10,000m after clinching silver at the Mizuho Park Athletic Stadium in Nagoya on Friday.
Gulveer clocked 28:29.38 to finish second in the gruelling 25-lap race, adding silver to the bronze he won in the same event at the 2023 Asian Games in Hangzhou. He became the first Indian to stand on the Asian Games podium twice in the men’s 10,000m.
