Patiala: Sprinter Hima Das might miss the Tokyo qualification race. As per reports, she sustained a muscle pull during the 100m heats at the ongoing National Inter-State Athletics Championships here.
However, the severity of her injury could not be ascertained.
Hima is unlikely to make it to Tokyo if she doesn’t make it to the relay team. The start sprinter from Assam, however, is also trying to qualify for the 200m event at the Games.
Hima, who has had a lower injury problem for a long time, ran her personal best of 22.88 seconds in 200m at the IGP 4 but missed the automatic qualification mark of 22.80 seconds.
