GUWAHATI: Hima Das has won the 400m race in Patiala for the Federation Cup in 52.88 seconds. She left behind M R Poovamma of Karnataka who timed at 53.15 and Sarita Ben of Gujarat who came in third at 53.23 seconds.
Previously, Das had come in fourth in her first race of the year on March 8 at the 3rd Indian Grand Prix.
She will now focus on the Asian Athletics Championship that will be held in Doha from April 26. However, she is still nowhere near her best timing when she won silver at the Jakarta Asian Games with a timing of 50.79 secs.
