Another brilliant piece! It brought to life a new sport and a new perspective on the olympics! Makes you think though doesn’t it - the difference between good, great and absolutely brilliant is so minute!

Thank you so much, for, once again, bringing it all to life so beautifully!

Thank you, Reshma! And indeed. The difference is so tiny, the details matter so much. It's crazy.

Lovely! Ive designed my life so far away from these thin margins, that it takes such a well written article to remind me how much the smallest things can matter.

Superb stories all around — thank you for writing, Sarthak!

Thanks a ton, Pritam!

I hear you. I don't think those margins are fathomable for us haha. Last night's 100m sprint was decided by 0.004 seconds. It takes more time to blink xD
