What makes us happy? 🏅

Seeing the entire 2026 Malibu Moves medal collection together certainly helps. 😍

But a medal becomes meaningful because of the story someone attaches to it.

For one person, it might represent their first 5K. For another, a comeback. For someone else, it might be a weekend spent moving alongside their children, friends or family.

Thousands of medals will be earned at Zuma Beach this October.

No two will mean exactly the same thing.

And that might be our favorite part.

Which one are you coming for?

Seven weeks from now, we’ll be together at Zuma Beach. 🌊

Some of you will be taking on 13.1 miles. Some will be running or walking the 10K or 5K. Some families will be experiencing the Zuma Dash or Kids Run together.

And every single person will arrive with a different reason for being there.

That’s what we love most about Malibu Moves.

There isn’t one way to participate and there isn’t one definition of success. Your weekend belongs to you.

Seven weeks to prepare, to believe a little more in yourself, and to remember why you signed up in the first place.

We can’t wait to welcome you to Malibu.

7 WEEKS TO MALIBU. 🌊⁠

Seven weeks until Zuma Beach fills with thousands of people moving for thousands of different reasons.⁠

For a first finish line.⁠
For a comeback.⁠
For strength.⁠
For family.⁠
For community.⁠
For themselves.⁠

You don’t have to be the fastest.⁠
You don’t have to have it all figured out.⁠
You just have to start where you are and keep moving toward what matters to you.⁠

Half Marathon. 10K. 5K. 1 Mile Zuma Dash. 1K Kids Run.⁠

Run it. Walk it. Make it yours.⁠

Seven weeks. 💛⁠

One of the things we love most about race day is that thousands of people can share the same start and finish lines while experiencing completely different journeys in between.

The person beside you may be chasing a personal best. Someone else may be walking their first 5K. Someone may be making a comeback, honoring someone they love, or simply proving to themselves that they can finish what they started.

None of those journeys is more meaningful than another.

Because participation isn’t really about what everyone else is doing.

It’s about you.

The clock can tell you how long it took to reach the finish line. It can’t tell you what it took to get there.

That meaning belongs entirely to you.

Eight weeks from today, Zuma Beach.

That is a real training block, not a scramble. Start this week and the last Sunday of week eight is race day. It lines up exactly.

So we wrote up what eight weeks is genuinely enough for at each distance. Short version. The 5K, comfortably, even if you are starting close to zero. The 10K, easily, and Fleet Feet Agoura Hills starts its eight week coached program today, which lands on race day because it was built to. The half, yes, if you can already run four or five miles without it being an event. If you cannot yet, run the 10K this year and come back for 13.1 in 2027. That is not a downgrade, and the 10K on this course is a good race with a real hill in it.

One thing we did not expect to be writing about: all three Sunday distances run the same first three miles. The Zuma access road, a stretch of PCH, then back toward the lot. Whatever distance you pick, your morning starts on the same road as everybody else's.

October 24 and 25 at Zuma Beach. Eight weeks.

Sometimes movement gives us something we did not even realize we needed.

Space to think. Space not to think. A reason to get outside. A community to move alongside. A morning that feels entirely yours.

Whatever brings you to the start line, there is a place for you here. Walk it. Jog it. Run it. Make it yours.

Our founder Erica sat down with VoyageLA for their Life & Work series.

She talked about the finish line, and why the 1K Kids Run gets the same ceremony as the Half Marathon. About the City of Malibu contract that makes this the only race in Malibu. And about what you have all done through the Charity Program: more than $110,000 back into this community in two years.

“Malibu Moves is not a race company trying to sound like a movement. It is a movement that expresses itself through races.”
