One day before the event I went for sea swimming but sight was horrible because it was choppy, waves were very high and I never had experience of swimming in such a worst condition. Idea to leave the event came to my mind but I thought let's try it. In 33 minutes I did just 1 km and gulped the sea water two times also”, he said.Asked about event day he said, “ On event day I decided not to panicked, just go cool after finishing 1.5 km swimming I decided to increase the pace, when I finished it, I was breathless and in transition I vomitted, medical team advised me to take rest but after few minutes I decided to go for cycling but due to vomiting I was dehydrated and not able to cycle in speed, strong sunlight was also killing me and when I was finishing the cycling, at the last aid station I poured water on my head, volunteers also did the same but due to cold water , severe cramps started in my both quadriceps. At the finishing point I wasn't able to stop cycle and fell down. After few minutes I started running but due to cramps I was simply walking and after one hour I was able to complete only 5 km so my mind was saying to quit, suddenly my friend Harshad Patil met and gave rock salt tube and it really did wonder due to which I was able to walk and run. Finally I was able to complete in 8.19 hours and won the medal.”Dr Jaiswal said he is dedicating his achievement to his mentor and trainer Dr. Amit Samarth for his world record of cycling 6000 km in Golden Quadrilaterals.He has also thanked to his swimming trainer Indrajeet Khadilkar, Harsad Patil, wife Vinita, Dr. Sunita Dhote and Sadhana Papadkar for their encouragement.
