Huafrid Billimoria Gains The Right To Participate In International Para-triathlon And Para-cycling Events
National Para Road Cycling Championship: Mumbai-based para-athlete and para-cyclist Huafrid Billimoria has achieved the qualifying classification to represent India in international para-triathlon and para-cycling events. Billimoria claimed he was the first Indian para-sportsperson to get this distinction.
Billimoria finished second in the category classification race that was held in challenging conditions in Hyderabad on Sunday.
"It was a crazy race for category classification which meant I was participating in the toughest category -- Senior Men 2 -- with more than 10 others. To finish second in 42+ degrees Celsius at 1 pm in the Hyderabad heat was very challenging. Had difficulty in breathing because of how dry it was," said Billimoria in a release on Tuesday, adding that they had to cycle at 32km average speed regardless of the conditions to make it to the podium.
