All the marketing and branding endeavour needed to connect with all the stakeholders while also being a communicative medium with everyone associated and participating in the event.
All our communiques were to address the local and regional community vis-a-vis its relevant issues - making a tangible impact in the community - particularly concerning the health and wellness of its people, making it a blend between practical communication and emotional connect with the brand.

Logo:
Since the logo had been the centrepiece of all our initiatives last year, we decided to retain all its prominent elements with only the name being updated from Rutu Kalyan Run to Rutu Kalyan Half Marathon. The logo is inspired by the colour of prosperity and wellbeing, which coincided with our communication premise of health and cleanliness being important components of wellbeing. The logo highlighted fitness that running gifts us along with the importance of cleanliness in safeguarding and preserving this precious and well-earned health we have.
Mascot:
One important addition to Rutu Kalyan Half Marathon was the introduction of the mascot. It incorporated the spirit of running, the importance of health, and celebrated the crucial responsibility of keeping the environment clean and how all three aspects plays a constructive role in ensuring the overall wellness of the society. The mascot also imbibed all the three important aspects very succinctly and effectively.
Tagline:
Clean Kalyan, Healthy Kalyan’
The tagline for the event went well with the message of the event, complemented the logo, and was a direct portrayal of the purpose and spirit of the event which was smartly used across all verticals of media, in keeping with our communication strategy. The tagline proved to be the buzzword around which the strategy of Rutu Kalyan Half Marathon was built.
