26th annual Nautica Malibu Triathlon

Athletes who favor the sun, surf, and sizzle of Zuma Beach are heading down to for the 26th annual Nautica Malibu Triathlon! Motivated athletes from around the world join together along with celebrities, corporate teams, paratriathletes, and professional triathletes to test their skills in the warm Pacific Ocean and streets of Malibu. 100% of the fundraising proceeds from the event benefit Children’s Hospital Los Angeles which has raised nearly 5 million dollars in the past 5 years!

WHAT:
Some trepidation, but surely excitement, will fill over 5,000 athletes as they gather before dawn on the white-sand beaches ready to take the plunge in the Pacific. The Herbalife International Race will kick things off on Saturday with a 1.5K ocean swim, a 40K bike down the famous Pacific Coast Highway, and conclude with a 10K run alongside the famous Zuma Beach. The Classic Distance race will follow on Sunday when athletes hit the beach for a half-mile ocean swim, 18 mile bike, and 4 mile out-and-back run. All racers have the option to compete individually or as part of a relay team. For more information, please visit www.NauticaMalibuTri.com
