Hima Das Returns, Finishes Fourth in Subdued 200m Run
Hima Das, with a poor 25.42s, finished fourth in the women’s 200m Race D at the Indian Athletics Series 3 in New Delhi, marking a subdued return to competition.
The 26-year-old last competed at the National Inter-State Championships in June 2024 and has been away from racing since, following a period where her 2024 results were disqualified. This outing, then, was less about outcome and more about stepping back into competitive rhythm.
She is entered in both the 200m and 400m events, where the field included Sri Jyothika Dandi, Aishwarya Mishra, and veteran quarter-miler MR Poovamma—names that ensure a high level of competition.
