Athletics, Paris Olympic Games 2024: Here's all you need to know about the women's 400m, Round 1- live streaming, timing, and other details
The 23-year-old Kiran Pahal, a five-time national champion in the women's 400m, is currently ranked 1863 in the world. Despite her season's best of 50.92 seconds and no previous international medals, she's made a remarkable breakthrough by qualifying for the Paris 2024 Olympics.
She marked it as her season's best timing at the 63rd National Inter-State Senior Athletics Championship in Panchkula, Haryana. In that championship, Kiran sealed an Olympic berth when she clocked a phenomenal 50.92 seconds in the semifinals of the women's 400m.
The time was far below the Paris Olympics 2024 qualification mark of 50.95 seconds and left many in shock at her unbelievable feat.
But Kiran's 50.92 seconds was not just a personal and seasonal best, for it turned out to be quite a momentous occasion for Indian athletics—she became only the second-ever Indian woman to break the magic 51-second barrier in the 400m, the other being Hima Das, holder of the national record at 50.79 seconds when she won at the 2018 Asian Games.
