What Is the Coastal Quest Challenge?
The Coastal Quest Challenge is a two-day experience designed to make your Malibu Moves weekend even more memorable. You’ll run or walk the 1-Mile Zuma Dash on Saturday, then complete your choice of the Half Marathon, 10K, or 5K on Sunday.
It’s the perfect way to turn your race into a full weekend of movement, community, and celebration.

Challenge participants receive three finisher medals, two exclusive race shirts, and a weekend filled with perks—including access to Saturday’s Expo, the Kids Zone, and a preview of your Sunday finish line. You’ll also get unlimited access to the post-race Beer Garden on Sunday, included at no additional cost.
Whether you're here for the miles, the memories, or the beer—this is your chance to go all in.

For Sunday’s race, age requirements apply: participants must be 7 or older for the 5K and 10K, and 12 or older for the Half Marathon.
Whether you're walking, jogging, or racing, the Challenge is designed to include and celebrate movers of all levels.

Yes—but to receive the exclusive Challenge perks (the third medal, extra shirt, and Beer Garden access), you must be registered for both Saturday’s Zuma Dash and a Sunday race through the Coastal Quest Challenge package. Signing up for just the Zuma Dash means you’ll receive the 1-Mile swag only.
