KIYG: Madhya Pradesh Athlete Vikas Bind Bags Gold a Year After Being Asked to 'Pack and go Home'

News 18  

Just under a year ago, Vikas Kumar Bind’s coach was so frustrated with his results that he asked the youngster to pack his bags and go home. Bind won the 3000m gold medal in the ongoing Khelo India Youth Games 2023 on Tuesday with a new meet record of 8 minutes 29.16 seconds. In November 2023, Bind had clocked a timing of 8:18.06 to rewrite the 12-year-old Junior National Athletics meet record in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. In the next Youth Nationals, I won my first medal, a silver and then Federation Cup I won bronze,” said Bind, who trains at the Madhya Pradesh Athletics Academy.
