Join us for Pasifika Rocking the Spectrum – Community Run, a family-friendly run/walk celebrating Autism Acceptance Month, Pasifika culture, and community connection.

This event was inspired by Paxton, an autistic Pasifika child, and is Pasifika-led, but open and welcoming to everyone, all cultures, all abilities, all paces. Whether you run, walk, stroll with a stroller, or roll, you belong here.

Our goal is to create a safe, inclusive, and joyful space where neurodivergent individuals and families feel seen, supported, and celebrated. This is not about speed or competition, it’s about visibility, acceptance, and community.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 All ages welcome

🏃‍♀️Run or walk at your own pace

♿ Accessibility- and sensory-aware environment

🌺 Pasifika culture, unity, and love at the center

Come rock the spectrum with us for Paxton, for our families, and for a more inclusive community.

    Vibha Los Angeles is excited to have The Dream Mile event returning to Southern California this year, with an added layer of run in celebrating the spring season with colors!

    Please visit https://dreammilecolorrun.org/ for more information.

    The Dream Mile is the flagship event in Vibha's continued efforts to increase awareness about the plight of underprivileged children. We are in our 26th year now, and we are very proud of it! Thanks to the support of all our patrons. The event has come a long way since its inception in 1998. It has grown from being a small event attended primarily by volunteers and friends to a permanent fixture on the calendars of runners in various cities in America. The increasing participation and enthusiasm for this event just goes to show how strongly people feel about the cause of underprivileged children.

    Celebrating Togetherness this Mother's Day Weekend

    Join us for a fun and challenging 5K - 10K Run/Walk at Hansen Dam, or wherever you are, to show your support for children and adults on the autism spectrum. Your fundraising efforts will empower our work to promote a more inclusive world for individuals with autism, in support of Assistant programs for people & children with developmental disabilities (including but not limited to Autism, Behavior disorders and Down Syndrome).

    While the last year was really challenging for all of us, our commitment to the autism community remained unwavering. 1 in 54 children and 1 in 45 adults in the U.S. are on the autism spectrum. The autism community has so many unique sets of strengths, challenges, goals, accomplishments and needs.

    Join us for Boogie Nights 5K & 10K After Dark — a disco-drenched nighttime run through the Valley where polyester reigns, vibes are high, and everybody’s a star at the finish line.

    Presented by Jed & Ted’s Excellent Races

    Roller skates. Gold chains. Big dreams. Inspired by the unforgettable energy of Boogie Nights (yes, that Boogie Nights), this race is a tribute to the over-the-top sparkle and grit of 70s/80s California cool — with just enough late-night chaos to make it magic.

    Choose your challenge:

    Boogie Nights 5K – A funky little sprint with serious Dirk Diggler attitude

    Boogie Nights 10K – Twice the disco, double the dazzle

    Expect funk and soul on the speakers, throwback signage, and a crowd ready to dance their way to the finish. Costumes welcome. Big collars and roller flair encouraged.

    This is a Jed & Ted’s Excellent Race — fun, fast, and full of heart.

    Sign up now. You’ve got the touch. You’ve got the power.

    🌀 Multiverse Option (Virtual Runners Welcome)

    Can’t make it in person? No problem — we’re bringing the disco to your dimension.

    Choose the Multiverse Option during registration and select your distance (5K or 10K).

    Then:

    ✅ Run anytime between June 27–30

    ✅ Track it however you like (Strava, NRC, selfie — we’re chill)

    ✅ Submit your proof and shipping info

    ✅ We’ll send your medal straight from the Valley to your door

    Same race. Same medal. Different timeline.
