Swapna Overcomes Pain To Win Gold, Asks For Customised Shoes
The first Indian heptathlete to win an Asian Games gold, Swapna Barman appealed for customised shoes for her 'abnormal' feet.
Barman, who has six toes in both her feet, produced her career-best performance by logging 6026 aggregate points from the seven events spread for two days. She competed with a tape on her right cheek to lessen pain arising out of teeth infection.
