MB10k Gives Back
Thanks to your participation in the Manhattan Beach 10k, we're excited to share how those miles have made a lasting impact right here in our community.
$30,000 donated from race proceeds helped fund the new Fitness Court now installed at Polliwog Park—a perfect spot to get moving as the weather warms up!
Whether you're walking, jogging, or strength training under the sun, this upgraded space invites everyone to stay active and enjoy the outdoors. It's just one more way the MB10k gives back—fueling fitness and community pride all year long.
Thank you for running with heart and helping us make a difference!
Celebrating Charlotte Lesser - A Champion of Community Connection
This month, we honor Charlotte Lesser, a true pillar of the Manhattan Beach community, who is retiring after 45 years of leading the city’s Neighborhood Watch program—a movement she co-founded in response to rising crime and grew into a model for civic engagement nationwide.
Charlotte’s impact on Manhattan Beach goes far beyond Neighborhood Watch. She is also one of the co-founders of the Manhattan Beach 10k, and her passion for bringing people together has helped define the spirit of our race. Her legacy of safety, service, and connection continues to shape the heart of this community—and the MB10k is proud to be a part of that legacy.
Thank you, Charlotte, for helping build something truly special in Manhattan Beach.
