The first ever Pinkathon, held in Mumbai was part of the 10 cities series. It was an overwhelming experience which saw 2000+ women from all walks of life, come together on a Sunday morning to run and support the cause of Breast Cancer Awareness.
It is a social movement that supports women's health & fitness and endeavors to create awareness about Breast Cancer.
In partnership with Women's Cancer Initiative (WCI) and Tata Memorial Hospital, the proceeds from Pinkathon are directly donated to WCI.
At Pinkathon fitness is used as the medium to spread awareness amongst women. The run hopes to inspire women and give them a sense of achievement that they have been a part of worthy cause i.e. THEMSELVES.
As Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths amongst women worldwide.
1 in 22 Indian women have the lifetime probability of developing breast cancer.
