00:00So today we are here to announce the sixth edition of the Zydus Pinkerton in Hyderabad.
00:09Pinkerton is India's biggest women's run and it's coming back to Hyderabad after three or four years.
00:18The idea behind Pinkerton is to encourage women to take care of their health and fitness through running.
00:24And we have distances, and these are quite unique, all the way from three kilometers to a hundred kilometers.
00:32So the distances that will be done, the longer distances will start on the 14th of February at five o'clock in the morning and end on the 15th of February at five o'clock in the morning.
00:42After that, we will have the three kilometer, five kilometer and the 10 kilometer distances.
00:47So very happy to be back in Hyderabad with the Zydus Pinkerton.
00:50If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer.
00:54Yes sir, there's some of your comments with the women counter.
00:57Can you tell me about what message you want to be?
00:59That's what I just said.
01:01Any message?
01:02Okay.
01:02So one of the main messages behind Pinkerton, of course, besides health and fitness and how women must take care of themselves,
01:10is about breast cancer awareness, that breast cancer is one of the curable cancers, but only if it is caught in the early stages.
01:18So how sports and running helps that, is you are more in touch with your body, you notice changes more easily,
01:25and when you see that there are some changes that need to be taken care of, you can go and visit a doctor.
01:32Sometimes people don't notice the changes and then it becomes critical.
01:35So if you want to make sure, any disease, it doesn't have to be cancer, if you catch it early, it can be cured more easily.
01:43That is one of the main messages of Zydus Pinkerton.
01:45I think that, of course, there are many inspiring aspects to Zydus Pinkerton.
02:01Number one is that every single community participates here.
02:05We have women who are running in saris, they're running in hijab, they're running in salwar kameez, they're running in shorts and tights.
02:11There are corporate women running, there are visually impaired women running, there are women from all age groups,
02:17right from 10 to 70 and 80 year old women running, there are women carrying small babies and running in Zydus Pinkerton.
02:25So it is made in a way that we don't want to leave any woman behind.
02:29No woman should feel that this event is not for her.
02:32We want to encourage every single woman out there to start taking their first steps towards health and fitness
02:38by spending a little time with themselves.
02:40And when they participate in the Zydus Pinkerton, they become part of a community of women who believe in this
02:47and they will get all the encouragement and motivation that they need to lead a healthier and happier life.
