Bengaluru is the capital of the Indian state of Karnataka. It is located in southern India, on the Deccan Plateau at an elevation of over 900 m (3,000 ft) above sea level, which is the highest among India´s major cities. The center of India´s tech industry, the city is also known for its parks. Bengaluru is often touted as India´s Silicon Valley has pleasant weather for most of the months during a year. We are hoping for a few course records and personal bests by all the participating athletes during this event.
The city has hosted many ultra-marathons over the course of last few years and has witnessed many national best performances created in races of different formats including 24 Hours, 36 Hours and even a 48 hour race. It is also home to running enthusiasts and passionate runners who participate in many running events globally.
