Demonstrating exceptional endurance, composure and race awareness, he timed his final-lap surge perfectly to secure third place in a thrilling finish. Gulveer Singh, who made history by becoming the first Indian athlete to win a medal in the men’s 10,000m at the Commonwealth Games with a silver, said his preparations have been progressing well since the CWG earlier this year. The reigning Asian champion clocked 27:49.78 at Scotstoun Stadium to secure silver, finishing narrowly behind Australia’s Ky Robinson, who won gold in 27:48.93. David Mullarkey of the Isle of Man claimed the bronze medal with a time of 27:50.28. Singh also produced a superb tactical performance to clinch the bronze medal in the men’s 5000m at the 2026 CWG.
“After the Commonwealth, my training has also been going very well. The way I performed there, I have continued to perform well here in India too. He praised the athletes’ hard work and dedication, saying he hopes their efforts will translate into an even greater medal haul. He noted that the high cost of running shoes and spikes makes such backing especially valuable, adding that access to ASICS spikes for training and competition has helped him perform at his best.
Given the way we are preparing, I am confident that we will definitely win medals and improve our performance,” Singh told ANI. Expressing confidence in the Indian athletics contingent for the Asian Games, Singh said the team has complete faith in its training and coaches. Gulveer Singh, an ASICS athlete, also said his association with the brand has provided crucial support to his athletic career.
I came directly here after competing in the Commonwealth, and since then, our training has been going smoothly.
