It’s all in the mind, as Imanina beats pain to gain bronze

ATHLETE Noor Imanina Idris, still in pain after suffering a left knee injury just a week ago, never let it bother her en route to landing a bronze medal in the women’s F20 (intellectual disability) shot putt event at the Hangzhou Asian Para Games yesterday.

Imanina, who described the pain as just a “mind game”, unabashedly revealed that she did not set a specific target but only wanted to improve her personal record of 10.57m set at the Asean Para Games in Cambodia in June.
