“It feels good not to be returning empty-handed; I am very happy… if we look back to two days before the decathlon, I wasn’t even in a position to compete, given the sudden flare-up in my leg. I didn’t expect to achieve the result I did today. But I think the one thing I learned during that time was to take it one day at a time, focusing on one session, one hour, and one step at a time, and see where it led. That was the mindset I started the decathlon with. And after the 100m, we moved on to the long jump and shot put. So, for each event, it was just about that single throw, rep, or jump; I was quite happy that I could stay in the moment and execute,” said Tejaswin to ANI in a post-event interaction.
