Munna,Manish Singh finished 13th with a time of 1hr21min21 sec.Our National Record is 1hr20min21 sec.So,it was 1 minute of it.Decent effort!!!
In Walk event, one foot should always be grounded otherwise it is considered running.3rd warning=Disqualification. Both Krishnan and Gurpreet were disqualified as they were given 3rd warning.Gurpreeet was at 5th position when he was shown his 3rd warning and Krishnan was 26th when his 3rd warning was shown.
THIS GENERALLY HAPPENS IN WALKING EVENTS AS ATHLETES TRY TO INCREASE SPEED.MANY OTHER ATHLETES WERE ALSO DISQUALIFIED FOR THE SAME REASON.
No-medal show reflects rot in Indian boxing. in 2012 london olympics 8 boxers has qualified. but in 2016 due lack of exposure tours only 3 boxers have qualified. that to individual sponsors helped them to qualify for rio except manoj kumar

Seems to be Schippers is favorite to win this.... She is super fast in heats & semis..
Srabani Nanda could have done better..She has decent height , along with 200 m & need to try events like 400 & 800 m
