Reinforcing its commitment to road safety, preventive healthcare and community well-being, STUDDS Accessories Limited—the world’s largest two-wheeler helmet manufacturer by volume in calendar year 2024—has partnered with Accord Superspeciality Hospital, Faridabad, to support the Accord Faridabad Half Marathon 4.0, held at Accord Hospital in Faridabad (Delhi-NCR).
Organised under the aegis of the Accord Foundation, the fourth edition of the marathon was built around the compelling theme “Choose Fitness Over Sickness”, highlighting the importance of conscious lifestyle choices in shaping healthier individuals and communities. The event aimed to promote physical activity, wellness and preventive care, drawing participation from over 1,433 runners, including families, corporate teams, fitness enthusiasts and amateur athletes from across the region.
A long-standing advocate of safety-first behaviour and responsible mobility, STUDDS’ association with the marathon reflects its broader CSR vision of supporting initiatives that encourage healthier living, safer habits and sustainable lifestyles.
As part of the partnership, STUDDS contributed to key participant-facing elements of the event, including official runner T-shirts and finisher medals, reinforcing the marathon’s emphasis on safety, endurance and active living.
Commenting on the collaboration, Mr. Sidhartha Bhushan Khurana, Managing Director, STUDDS Accessories Ltd., said, “At STUDDS, safety is not just a product promise—it is a way of life. Our partnership with the Accord Faridabad Half Marathon aligns seamlessly with our belief that prevention, awareness and disciplined habits are essential for long-term well-being. Through this initiative, we aim to inspire individuals to make fitness a daily choice and contribute to building healthier, more resilient communities.”
Over the past three editions, the Accord Faridabad Half Marathon has evolved into one of the city’s most prominent fitness movements, offering a strong platform for public engagement around health, wellness and active living. This year’s edition gained added momentum with the association of Mr. Rohtash Chaudhary, popularly known as “The Push-Up Man of India” and a Guinness World Record holder, who served as the event’s Brand Ambassador—symbolising strength, endurance and the spirit of fitness.
The marathon featured multiple race categories to encourage participation across age groups and fitness levels, supported by robust on-ground medical infrastructure, emergency response teams and wellness support. Together, STUDDS and Accord Hospital called upon citizens of Faridabad and the wider Delhi-NCR region to lace up, show up and take a collective step towards a healthier future—by truly choosing fitness over sickness.
