Amit Khatri from India won the silver medal in the 10,000-meter walk

Posted on August 21, 2021September 6, 2021 By Haris Daniyel

On Saturday, Indian athlete Amit Khatri completed the silver medal in the men’s 10,000-meter walking race at the World U-20 Athletics Championships in Nairobi with a time of 42 minutes and 17.94 seconds. Amit fell behind Kenyan gold medallist Heristone Wanyonyi with a score of 42: 10.84. Before being overtaken by Wanyonyi on the penultimate lap, the young Indian held a leading position in most regional competitions. Spaniard Paul McGrath won the bronze medal with a score of 42: 26.11.

Amit, 17, won the 18th National Confederations Cup with a time of 40 minutes and 40

seconds earlier this year, setting a new national U-20 record for a 10-kilometer walk.

“As it’s a high altitude so breathing (was a) problem for me. It was my first international competition and (I) won silver for India. I’m happy with silver at least I could fulfil the hopes of India,” said Amit after winning the medal, according to a tweet shared by the Athletics Federation of India (AFI).

This is the first time that an Indian has won a medal in race walking and is also the first time that the country has won two medals in a single edition of the event. The mixed 4x400m relay team had won the bronze medal earlier this week.
