Hoysala Hustle, a thematic cultural run to mark Karnataka Rajyotsava, will mark its second edition this year on November 1 on NICE Road, Bengaluru.
It will have 21K, 10K, 5K and 3K race categories, and it combines endurance sport with culture, heritage, music, performance and storytelling, said Ankur Bhasin, race director of Hoysala Hustle, in a release.
