Bhubaneswar, Jun 16 (PTI) Heat and humidity here have been a cause of concern for many but national record holder 100m hurdler Jyothi Yarraji is confident that she can run yet another sub-13 second race in the National Inter-State Athletics Championship.

The 23-year-old Yarraji was in Europe from May 27 to June 7 where she ran seven races out of which she ran sub-13 second thrice with a season’s best of 12.84 in Germany. Before that she ran 12.89 seconds to win gold in the Federation Cup in Ranchi on May 17.

“Yes, I can do better here. The competition will be tough, hoping to have neck-to-neck runners. I am running in my country and my aim is to run sub-13 consistently wherever,” Yarraji told
