Elgi Equipments Ltd, one of the world’s leading air compressor manufacturers, concluded the fifth edition of its annual #WhatsYourFinishLine challenge. The 21-day-long fitness challenge ended on November 5, 2023, bringing together 1,644 employees and channel partners across the globe with the shared objective of advocating for comprehensive wellness and a lifestyle focused on health.

This year, as an expression of its dedication to a greener environment, the company implemented the ‘Green Champion’ program, ensuring every participant is rewarded with the planting of a mahogany tree. Close to two thousand neem or mahogany trees will be planted later this month in Appanaickenpatti, Coimbatore. It is estimated that these carbon storage heroes will sequester approximately 13,200 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent as they grow over the next decade.

The 5th edition of the #WhatsYourFinishLine challenge saw 154 teams with participants from 26 countries collectively log 225.5 million steps via running, walking, and jogging. The challenge also focused on providing participants with a holistic view of their fitness journey, i.e., mood tracking, hydration monitoring, and mindfulness sessions, aside from interactive lifestyle improvement and wellness sessions led by award-winning Holistic Nutrition – Integrative and Lifestyle Medicine Expert, Luke Coutinho, and Dr Almos Sajjath, an ISSA-certified health and fitness consultant. Later this year, the company will power the 11th edition of the Coimbatore Marathon 2023, which is scheduled to be held on December 17, 2023.
