We're thrilled to announce the beginning of a brand-new saga of running events — Miles Trilogy, Season 1!
This inaugural season brings together runners of every level for a celebration of speed, stamina, and spirit. Alongside our 5 Mile and 10 Mile categories, we're proud to introduce our show-stopper: the 1 Mile Elite Race, where the country's fastest runners go head-to-head in a high-octane sprint. This is an invite-only category, showcasing elite talent from across the nation.

💛 Kids Charity Run
We're also introducing a Kids Charity Run, where bibs can be donated to give underprivileged children the joy of participating. Your contribution helps put an enthusiastic young runner on the start line — every donated bib is a child's chance to run, cheer, and shine.
Come be part of the very first chapter of the Miles Trilogy. Lace up, show up, and help us build a running legacy!
Registration details coming soon.

What runners say
The best organised run I have done in Bengaluru. Clear markings, enough aid stations, and the volunteers actually knew the route.
I came for the 5 Miles and stayed for the atmosphere. The kids charity run at the end had the whole ground cheering.
Flat, fast and well marshalled — I set a personal best here. Bib collection was quick and painless too.
