Everything You Need to Know for the 2026 MB10k

Race Day Is Next Week!

We’re getting close! The 49th Annual Manhattan Beach 10k is Saturday, October 3 at 7:30am. Thanks to all of you, we’ve sold out for the fourth consecutive year, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone to Manhattan Beach for Year 49. Before race morning arrives, take a few minutes to review the important information below so you’re ready to go.

Bib Pick-up Information

Please note that advance bib pick-up is two days this year.

Advance Bib Pick-up

Village Runner, Manhattan Beach, Back Parking Lot
1840 Sepulveda Blvd.
Manhattan Beach, CA 90266

Thursday, October 1 | 10am–7pm
Friday, October 2 | 10am–7pm

Please have your assigned bib number ready when checking in or present your race confirmation email, either printed or digital. You may pick up bibs for family and friends as long as you have their information.

And there’s a little something waiting for you while you’re there! Dunkin’ Donuts will be providing Munchkins during bib pick-up while supplies last.

Race Morning Bib Pick-up

If you cannot pick up your bib in advance, race morning bib pick-up will be available at the Bib Number Pick-Up Table at 2nd Street & Ardmore Avenue (on the greenbelt) in Manhattan Beach. Have your confirmation email (printed or electronic) ready.

Saturday, October 3 | 6:30am–7:15am

We recommend arriving before 7am to give yourself plenty of time before the 7:30am start.

The race begins promptly at 7:30am. Please plan accordingly. Late starters are not guaranteed an official time.

Running as a Family Team?

If you’re planning to compete in one of our Family Team categories, there is one important step you need to complete before race day. After both participants have their bib number, use this link, and follow instructions.  Family Team entry ends at 7pm the night before the race. There is no fee to be entered. Teammates do not need to race together, scoring is based on the combined times.  While Family Teams and 200+lbs awards will be announced after the race, Family Teams and 200+lbs medals will only be available for pick up at Village Runner, Manhattan Beach, starting at noon on race day until the end of October.

After You Cross the Finish Line

Don’t head home just yet! After finishing, head to the upper parking lots above the Manhattan Beach Pier to pick up your 2026 Finisher Tee and enjoy the Post-Race Expo. Our 2026 supporters will be there with food, drinks, samples, giveaways, post-race recovery and more. It’s a great place to reconnect with family and friends and enjoy a little more of race morning.


THE MB10K IS A NON-PROFIT EVENT AND THE PROCEEDS ARE DONATED TO COMMUNITY FITNESS RELATED CAUSES & SCHOLARSHIPS. THE RACE COMMITTEE ORGANIZERS AND RACE STAFF ARE VOLUNTEERS.
