All participants and spectators will take Run Malibu shuttles from the Finish Line Festival back to their cars after the event. On race morning, we will have parking staff and signage directing you to your parking location and start line, as well as to the shuttles if you are coming with spectators.

ALL Wheelchair/Handcycle athletes must start with the general race start at 7:15 am.

Participants completing the Golden State Challenge will be able to pick-up their GSC medal on Sunday after completing their race at the Golden State Challenge lounge. Look for the Golden State Medals signs to be directed to the pick-up tent.

The half marathon will operate on a self-seeded corral system. Participants should look for the pace-per-mile signs that line the start line to seed themselves accordingly. Those that plan to walk during the race should plan to start toward the back of the pack to avoid impeding those that are running at a faster pace. The event will utilize a wave start. This will enable a comfortable starting position for runners and walkers of all paces. When the horn sounds, only the first corral will be released. The rest of the participants will be held at the start line. At predetermined intervals (every few minutes), the next corral will be released. By using this staggered starting method, the pack will be spread out and allow every runner to settle into their racing rhythm from their first step to the finish line. This will allow sufficient room along the course for the half-marathon, and at the finish line without affecting individuals’ time or the time participants must complete the race. Half Marathoners should park 60 to 90 minutes before their race start. Please note, if you are traveling with spectators, they will need to immediately board a shuttle to the Finish Line Festival if they intend to meet you there, as the spectator shuttles will be boarding and running continuously from 6:15am – 6:45am.
