Event Description
In 1979, the Austin Runners Club organized a race on the roads around Decker Lake in east Austin and thus the Decker Challenge was born!
Today, the Decker Challenge road race is one of the longest-running races in Austin. This year we'll be celebrating our 44th annual event in person on Sunday, December 12th, 2021! We are also excited to announce that a portion of this year's proceeds will go to benefit two local Austin non-profit organizations: Marathon Kids and The Trail Foundation.
