Congratulations on signing up for India’s first ever ultra marathon being held outside Bangalore on 16 December 2007. You will be joining 200 other hearty runners on a magnificent trail running experience! The trail offers some great scenic vistas of the countryside outside Bangalore. For those coming from a mainly road running background it is recommended that some of the training be done in trails.  While not all training needs to be done on trails it will certainly make things go smoother on race day if some trail training is done.

It would be beneficial for all participants to run our training run scheduled for October 7th at the venue for the ultra marathon. It will help you familiarize yourself with the course and get a good mental image of what you will be tackling on race day. If geography or time prevents you from participating in the training run then go through the 'Training' section on this site for a detailed description of the race course. We sincerely hope that you not only enjoy the race itself  but also the training and preparation leading up to it.
