Dusk to Dawn Ultra is Karnataka’s first ultra-run along the breathtaking coastal region. This one-of-a-kind event combines endurance, adventure, and natural beauty on a 50K coastal course (25 km one way) along the west coast of India. The route is a flat, sea-level (zero altitude) tarmac course, making it ideal for both seasoned ultra runners chasing performance and first-timers looking for a smooth, runnable experience. Imagine running under the moonlight, with the sound of waves beside you and the cool sea breeze on your face — truly a runner’s paradise.

The race flags off at 6:00 PM from Padubidri Beach Front and continues along Fisheries Road beside the coastline, carrying runners through the night until 6:00 AM, as darkness gives way to a spectacular sunrise over the Arabian Sea. Every kilometer offers a unique experience — the rhythm of your steps blending with the sound of waves, the calm of the night, and the energy of fellow runners pushing limits together.

Whether you aim to cover as many kilometers as possible in 12 hours, or you’re racing to finish fast in the 50K, Half Marathon, 10K, 5K, or 3K, Dusk to Dawn Ultra challenges you physically, mentally, and emotionally.

12-Hour Ultra: The ultimate endurance test — the runner who covers the maximum distance between 6 PM and 6 AM takes the crown.

Other Distances: Compete for glory as the fastest finishers in each category take home trophies and prizes.

This is more than just a race — it’s an experience of nature, community, and personal triumph. Every step you take, from dusk to dawn, will stay etched in memory.

Eligibility to take part in 12 hr: should be a finisher of minimum 60K Ultra / 12 hr / any ultra distance finisher.
