Sindhu competes, Harmanpreet cheers as PUMA & HYROX disrupt India's sporting norms

Bengaluru, April 11 (UNI) Indian cricket team captain Harmanpreet Kaur stepped away from the field to experience the action, while two-time Olympic medalist PV Sindhu stepped off the court to take on a popular fitness challenge, as sports brands PUMA and HYROX brought their ultimate disruptive race format to the city for the first time.
PUMA ambassador PV Sindhu competed in a mixed relay format, taking on eight 1 km runs paired with eight functional workout stations, including the sled push and rowing in a fitness race that demanded endurance, energy, strength, and everything in between.
Two-time Olympic medalist and PUMA Ambassador, PV Sindhu said* , "Badminton has always been my world - but HYROX is completely different. There is no opponent across the net, just you, the clock, and eight stations that test everything at once. I won't pretend it was easy. But that is exactly what drew me to it. Harmanpreet Kaur cheered me on and brought an energy that pushed me harder. As athletes, we are always looking for the thing that makes us better at what we do. PUMA has always backed us to go beyond our sport, and this weekend, we did exactly that."
