Countdown to event
In 1979, Austin Runners Club organized a race on the roads around Decker Lake in east Austin and the Decker Challenge was born. Get ready and join us on December 8, 2024 for the 46th running of one of Austin’s oldest and most iconic races.
The Decker Challenge is a family-friendly event that includes competitive Half Marathon and 5K distances. Challenge yourself on this legendary course and conquer the famous hills of Decker. Once you cross the finish line, celebrate with your friends, family and fellow runners at the finisher’s party. Half Marathon and 5K finishers receive the famous Decker t-shirt, highly-coveted and hard-earned finisher's medal and free race photos.
