The second edition of the Monsoon Marathon in Nandi Hills is set to commence on August 8 at 11 p.m. and conclude on August 9 at 12 p.m., according to officials from the Chickballapur district administration. The race will begin at Karahalli Cross and conclude at Nandi Hills. Traffic will be restricted in the area between these two points during the event.
