5k Run Ultra

Step into a world-class destination where imagination meets a relentless drive for performance. Beyond the gates of the world’s most famous theme parks, Anaheim is a powerhouse athletic hub, home to championship baseball and hockey teams and a community that thrives on the classic SoCal lifestyle of sun, surf, and fitness. It is a city designed for creating legendary moments and breaking personal records in the heart of Orange County.

The action unfolds at the Anaheim Convention Center, the largest exhibit facility on the West Coast and a premier arena for high energy competition. This two-day celebration of fitness begins with a packed Day 1, featuring individual Age Group waves and the weighted challenge of the Ruck category, followed by the high-stakes Elite heats and the fast-paced coordination of 2-Person Teams. The energy shifts on Day 2 as we unleash the DEKA FIT Ultra endurance gauntlet, a bonus round of Age Group Heats, and the high-octane collaboration of 4-Person Teams, making for a massive weekend of Southern California fitness.

ATHLETE JUDGE PROGRAM

DEKA is truly a fitness movement we all created together. To ensure a professionally judged racing experience for all athletes, we ask all registered athletes to participate in the DEKA Athlete Judge Program at DEKA FIT events.

How it works:

If you are registered to race this event, please use the SoCal DEKA FIT Athlete Judge Sign-up Form to select your preferred Athlete Judge time.

Within 1 hour of finishing your race (or anytime before your race), make your way to the Athlete Judge check-in area at Zone 1 to begin your 60 minute volunteer judging time.

We can’t thank you enough for your support as we continue our mission of creating an epic opportunity for ALL levels to celebrate fitness together.

GIVEAWAY SHIRTS

Those who registered early and were among the first 1,000 to earn the exclusive DEKA giveaway shirt will receive an email with instructions on how to claim your reward. Please keep an eye on your inbox and email cs@deka.fit if you have any questions.
