DEKA FIT - Austin, TX
The DEKA FIT event in Austin is scheduled for May 9 and 10, 2026 at the Palmer Events Center, 900 Barton Springs Rd, Austin, TX. The DEKA FIT race format covers a 5 km course organized into 10 distinct fitness zones and shows an average participant duration of about 0 h 50 m 30 s.
Registered athletes will be invited to participate in an Athlete Judge Program. In the weeks before the event, athletes receive an email with a sign-up form to select a preferred Athlete Judge time. Athletes may also submit the sign-up form before receiving that email. Volunteer judging takes place at the Athlete Judge check-in area at Zone 1 and consists of a 60 minute judging shift that can begin within one hour after finishing a race or anytime before the athlete’s own race.
Additional event options include general volunteer shifts that award a free race credit valid for specific DEKA FIT age group categories, ruck or two-person team heats, and many US Spartan race formats. There is a service member discount of up to 20 percent for qualifying US military, law enforcement, firefighters and first responders, and certain government employees; eligibility requires verification. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
