Asian Games 2023: Parul Chaudhary, Priti Bag Silver And Bronze In 3000m Steeplechase
India's Parul Chaudhary and Priti secured silver and bronze medals respectively in the women's 3000m steeplechase but they were left chasing the shadow of Bahrain's Yavi Winfred Mutile, who set an Asian Games record on way to defending her title on Monday. Parul clocked 9:27.63 seconds, which was more than nine seconds behind the Bahrain runner who took the top podium finish in 9:18.28, a new Games record. The previous Games record stood in the name of country-mate Jebet Ruth (9:31.36 sec) set during the 2014 Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea.
