Nauraj Singh clears 2.20m to break high jump indoor record

>> January 31, 2021

Three-time SEA Games gold medalist Nauraj Singh Randhawa smashed his national indoor record during an indoor track meeting at Vienna, Austria (30 Jan 2021).



He cleared a height of 2.20m in his third attempt  to finish in second place behind German Tobias Potye, a world cup bronze medalist who registered 2.26m.



Nauraj, who turned 29 three days earlier improved his two-year old record by 1 cm, which he set in Chemnitz, Germany in 2019. 



Like other athletes, he was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and has not competed since the SOPAC meeting in Sydney in February last year, where he jumped 2.20m, the same height he achieved yesterday.



He holds the current national outdoor record of 2.30m from 2016.

Effects of Home Confinement on Training Habits and Injury in Long Distance Runners

>> December 18, 2020

Due to COVID-19 pandemic, policies of social distancing became commonplace in different places or countries. 

Athletes who are typically active and 'busy' (training and competition) were suddenly required to stay at home.

The influences of such restrictions in training habits and injury in youth long-distance runners were unknown.

A recent study by Bazett-Jones and colleagues (link below) found that COVID-19 social distancing restrictions significantly impacted youth long-distance runners' training habits, injuries, and care seeking behaviors. 

Specifically, during the confinement period, youth long-distance runners decreased their training activities (as follows), possibly due to extrinsic factors such as motivation.

  • Weekly running distance
  • Number of weekly runs
  • Number of weekly hard runs 
Interestingly, the number of reported injuries decreased significantly for the group during the COVID-19 quarantine, and cited to be due to decreases in training volume and intensity.

Running habits and injury incidence before and during COVID-19 social distancing restrictions.

Number of self-reported injuries before and during COVID-19 restrictions by location and injury type.

From one perspective, reduced injuries (because of home confinement) is good. However, in a case of you got injured during the quarantine period, it would be more challenging for athletes to receive a proper treatment.

Indeed, the study also reported that the runners, actually reduced their visits to health care providers during quarantine by 3.6 times (i.e. 58.5%  from 16.4% before lockdown), most probably due to movement restrictions, etc. 

The outcomes suggest that "strategic plans to maintain access to medical services" during such event (quarantine) is necessary. 

In summary, the authors highlighted that "COVID-19 pandemic resulted in significant decreases in both training and injuries." 

The authors further clafiried that their findings were different compared to previous reports in an adult population.

This quarantine-based trials was an alternative "competition" for the national athletes after the last meeting they competed before the Movement Control Order (Malaysian lockdown) on 18 March. The easing of restrictions under a Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO) started on May 4 for 6 weeks, allowed most businesses to open under strict norms of practice, but not sporting competitions.

The CMCO was implemented again started from the second week of October as the COVID-19 cases rise, causing "actual competitions" cannot be held (at least until the first week of December). 

Several competitions that were scheduled to take place in November, such as Perak open were cancelled.

The national athletics championships is expected to be held in the second week of December, but it is also depend on the future "restrictive measures" by the government.

Note: No national record would be considered in this meet.

Azeem Fahmi sets 200m PB at 21.04 (+1.1) Perak All-Comers 2020

>> February 22, 2020

Malaysian sprint sensation Muhammad Azeem Fahmi had an impressive season opener by setting a new personal best in the 200m during the 1st day of Perak All-Comers at Ipoh today (22 Feb 2020).

The 15-year-old clocked a time of 21.04 (+1.1), erasing his previous best of 21.15 he set last year in Thailand. Read here

He was not pushed to his maximum and crossed the line ahead of his closest opponent by at least 10 meters.

This shows that he will run even faster in the 200m and will likely improve on his 100m best time of 10.57, which he set in November last year. Read here

In Malaysia, only six senior sprinters have run faster than him, with Russel Taib's national record of 20.77 leading the list.

This is followed by Khairul Hafiz Jantan at 20.90 that broke the Malaysian long-time record in 2017. Behind him is the time of 20.92 shared by M. Jegathesan from 1968 and Jonathan Nyepa from 2019.

Azmi Ibrahim ran 20.97 nineteen years ago, and Aqil Yasmin's 21.01 set on the same track today, was another one above Azeem's.
