J.N Pandey, a 76 years old participant and Ex-GM of Vishakhapatnam Steel Plant walked the 10 Km distance with ease and said, “It was quite nice and very well organised which all of us enjoyed. I intend to tell fellow retired individuals that they must walk for at least 2-3 kms a day and keep themselves occupied with something or the other to stay fit. I would like to thank the Artemis Hospital for conducting such a streamlined event.”
This global campaign engages individuals, families, communities and governments across the globe to participate in an exercise to take charge of their heart health and that of the others. People from DLF phase I, II, III, IV and V participated in the event and pledged to adopt brisk walk in their daily routine.
Another resident of DLF phase III said, “I came to know about the walkathon while I was visiting the hospital for a regular check-up of my mother who suffers from hypertension. I feel refreshed and lively after the five-kilometre walk and intend to adopt it as a daily practice.”
There has been a 50% rise in the cases of heart diseases and strokes since 1990. Whereas a two percent increase in the number of deaths registered due to these diseases has been witnessed. There is a need to act on spreading awareness about these diseases. The government as well as private health service providers need to address this challenge and come up with solutions like this walkathon.
