The 10th edition of the run will be held on Sunday, 8th October 2023 and will take runners through important landmarks of the city, concluding at the Kanteerava Stadium. The very popular annual ‘City Run' is expected to have more than 20,000 participants across all age groups. The marathon will have three categories — the full marathon of 42.195 km, the half marathon of 21.1 km and the 5K Hope Run — certified by AIMS (Association of International Marathons).

To prepare the runners for the final event, NEB Sports will be organising several activities across the city including three prep runs to promote fitness and help participants prepare for the main event. As an inclusive run in which people with special abilities participate, one training run will be dedicated for the visually impaired team to prep for the run. Another run for kids is planned at Sneha Care Home – the NGO partner for the Bengaluru Marathon.
