The countdown to the 49th Annual Manhattan Beach 10k is on! Join us on Saturday, October 3, 2026 at 7:30am, for one of Manhattan Beach's favorite traditions. The MB10k has sold out for the past three consecutive years, and registration is going strong for Year 49. If the race is on your fall calendar, now's the time to register. Race prices increase on Friday, July 24, so lock in today's pricing before the next price bump.

One of the most rewarding parts of the Manhattan Beach 10k is the opportunity to support local students as they take the next step in their academic journeys. This year, we're honored to recognize a remarkable group of Mira Costa High School seniors who have distinguished themselves through scholarship, service, and a commitment to healthy living.

Around this time every year, the Manhattan Beach 10k starts showing up on more and more calendars. Some people have raced it for years. Some make it an annual tradition with family or friends. Others simply know that if they want to be part of race day, it’s better not to wait too long.

There’s a window every year where signing up for the MB10k just makes sense.

• Before prices go up.

• Before summer gets busy.

• Before race day starts to feel close.

That window is right now.

Every year, it starts the same way — a ton of early registrations, a little buzz, and then it builds. Friends start texting. Run clubs make plans. People who said, “Maybe this year.”, finally sign up. Before long, race day isn’t just on the calendar — it’s something you’re part of. That’s how the Manhattan Beach 10K comes together, year after year.

For nearly 50 years, the Manhattan Beach 10k has been more than just a race — it’s a community tradition.

On race morning, it’s not just the racers. It’s the neighbors, the local bands, the volunteers, and the finish at the Manhattan Beach Pier. It’s why so many people come back. And why first-timers quickly understand what makes it special.

As we head into Year 49, Early Registration is already underway.

For nearly five decades, the Manhattan Beach 10k has been more than just a race — it’s a hometown tradition.

The first Saturday of October, thousands of participants take to the streets of Manhattan Beach, passing through neighborhoods lined with cheering spectators, live bands along the course, and finishing steps from the iconic Manhattan Beach Pier. For many participants, the MB10k isn’t just another race on the calendar — it’s something they come back for year after year.

It’s official — online registration for the 49th Annual Manhattan Beach 10k is now open.

After selling out the last three years, the MB10k continues to be one of Southern California’s most anticipated road races, drawing runners of all ages and abilities to the streets of Manhattan Beach each fall. From the buzz of downtown, to the neighborhood support along the course, and a finish line at the iconic Manhattan Beach Pier, the MB10k delivers an experience that goes far beyond race day.
