meet im really pleased with her performance from my perspective the most pleasing thing was that she peaked at the right time as a coach its about getting the athletes to perform at the right time she was impressive during the asian meet where she ran a national record and personal best in the heat and then another national record and another personal best in the final so really delighted that she did that and under a lot of pressure theres a lot of expectation from her now he saiddetailing her journey as the countrys premier women hurdler jyothi said her interest in the sport grew from pt sessions at her school during my pt sessions in school i used to go to the tracks by myself and train i also joined the school training sessions for athletics with my friends my interest in running started growing and thats how i started my journey in athleticstalking about her familys humble financial condition jyothi said her parents initially wanted her to focus on studies but it was her mother who supported in her quest to become a sportsperson my family was initially not interested in sports my father and brother wanted me to study focus on higher education and get a private job slowly my mother started taking interest in athletics and then she started motivating me but now the scenario has completely changed now that i am representing my country on an international level my parents are very proud of me and now they fully support me our financial conditions in the early days were not good we had our own challenges like i couldnt afford sports gear and more but now things have changed and now i will only focus on improving my performancejames has prepared a detailed training chart for jyothi for the current season aiming at a good showing at the world athletics championships in budapest and asian games in hangzhou this year weve structured it slightly differently to last year because we did want to have an indoor season this year the 60 meters hurdles is significantly different to the 100meter hurdles and theres different requirements for the events its more of an accelerationbased event so the nature of our training would be focusing on shorter accelerationbased training now that the indoor season is finished well be working on more top and highspeed training hurdle endurance and more suited to the 100meter hurdles outdoors so thats what we will be working on she ultimately performed well and got a medal which is what we want the coach saidnow we will plan for the outdoors she has three major championships this year the asian athletics championships in thailand in july world athletics championship in budapest in august and then of course the asian games in september in china so thats really the goal well plan out what we need to work on her learnings from the indoor season and then well put that into play and then
