OUR VISION

Welcome to Lake Travis Runners & Walkers! We're creating a supportive community where people of all fitness levels can discover the joy of moving outdoors together. Whether you're taking your first steps as a runner or looking to reconnect with an active lifestyle, you'll find a welcoming home with us.

ABOUT OUR SPONSOR

Fit Foundation's support allows us to offer this training program while providing quality guidance and resources throughout your journey.

KICK-OFF EVENTS - COME MEET US! THIS WEEKEND
- First Meetup: Saturday, April 19th, 2025
8:00 AM at Bee Creek Sports Complex pavilion (near basketball courts)

Casual introduction to the program and participants

Optional 20-minute walk around the complex

Follow-up Gathering: Saturday, April 26th, 2025

Location will be posted in advance

Join us for these relaxed sessions to meet fellow participants, learn about our approach, and get comfortable with the training environment. No pressure, no expectations - just come as you are!

PROGRAM SNAPSHOT

Training Period: May 17th - July 12th, 2025 (8 weeks)

Weekly Sessions: Saturday mornings, 8:00 AM

MEET UPS AND SPECIAL PREVIEW RUNS (SIGNUP REQUIRED)

Note: Meet ups and review runs require advance registration for insurance purposes and to confirm headcount with Travis County Parks. $5 park entry fee applies.

Our Saturday gatherings offer a chance to connect with others on the same journey. Each week builds naturally on the last, gradually increasing your endurance while keeping the experience enjoyable.

Our 1.55-mile loop at Bee Creek Sports Complex offers the perfect training environment: measured distance, minimal elevation, and beautiful surroundings. You'll quickly feel comfortable with the route, allowing you to focus on your progress rather than navigation.

We emphasize consistency over intensity. Every participant works at their own pace while following the same interval structure. This creates a shared experience regardless of fitness level - no one gets left behind, and everyone celebrates each other's progress.

WEEKLY SESSIONS: WHAT TO EXPECT

Each Saturday session follows a simple format:

Group warm-up: We start together with a 5-minute walk and dynamic stretches

Interval training: Alternate between jogging and walking periods (customized each week)

Group cool-down: We finish together with a 5-minute walk and light stretching

Quick check-in: Share experiences, ask questions, and prepare for the week ahead

Our intervals gradually progress e.g. from 1-minute jogs with 2-minute walks in week one to 10-minute jogs with 1-minute walks by the final week. This gentle progression builds your endurance without overwhelming your body.

WEEKLY COMMUNICATION & GUIDANCE

To ensure everyone stays on track and informed, we provide guidance through two primary channels:

Weekly Training Newsletter (via Substack)

Detailed workout plans for the upcoming week

Form tips and technique advice

Nutrition and hydration guidance

Injury prevention strategies

Mental training techniques

Important running topics and educational content

Facebook Group Updates

Schedule reminders and any last-minute changes

Route maps and meeting point confirmations

Weather updates and clothing recommendations

Quick tips and motivation

PROGRAM LOGISTICS & EXPECTATIONS

Timing: Sessions start promptly at 8:00 AM and last about 45-60 minutes

Structure: All participants will begin and end together as a group

Pacing: Workout intervals are self-paced - go at YOUR comfortable speed

Community: Participants are encouraged to support each other

Communication: Weekly emails with workout details and updates

Weather: Sessions will run rain or shine (unless conditions are unsafe)

TIPS FOR SUCCESS

Be consistent - try to attend every Saturday session

Do your homework - one additional workout per week makes a huge difference

Stay hydrated - drink plenty of water before and after sessions

Rest appropriately - include rest days between workout days

Listen to your body - some discomfort is normal, but pain is not

Celebrate progress - every week you'll be building more endurance!

WHAT TO BRING EACH WEEK

Comfortable walking/running shoes

Water bottle

Weather-appropriate clothing

Positive attitude!

Whether you choose the half-marathon or full marathon distance, you'll have a ready-made training group to keep you motivated through the summer and fall.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM LEADERSHIP

This program is led by the founder of FIT Foundation a certified USATF running coach, who has designed the training plan specifically for beginners. Sessions are structured to ensure all participants can complete the workouts at their own pace while receiving individual guidance and support.

Experience the "Live Music Capital of the World," a city that beats with a rhythm of independence, creativity, and non-stop movement. Austin is consistently ranked as one of the fittest cities in the country, where the community spends its mornings on the Lady Bird Lake trails and its evenings enjoying the legendary nightlife of 6th Street. It is a place that celebrates being "weird" and working hard, offering an electric, welcoming atmosphere for athletes from every walk of life.

The event is hosted at the Palmer Events Center, a stunning venue nestled next to Butler Park with arguably the best view of the Austin skyline in the city. Over two days, athletes will navigate the signature DEKA course, starting with the individual drive of the Age Group waves and the weighted intensity of the Ruck category, and the crowd-pleasing Elite heats. Day 2 brings the collaborative energy of 2-person and 4-person teams along with the multi-lap DEKA FIT Ultra, all within a pavilion-style venue that captures the true essence of Austin.

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 Austin 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 are 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.

In the American calendar, the July 4th 💐 is an important date as it marks the commemoration of the declaration of independence in 1776 from Great Britain 🇬🇧. This national holiday is thus highlighted with fireworks 🎇, patriotic songs, and barbecues 🍗. But a holiday also means an opportunity to pin on a bib! 🎽 Meet at Austin, the funkiest city in Texas 🇺🇲 to participate in the July 4th Freedom Run 🚏, a pressure-free race as it's just an excuse to gather with family or friends 🫶. Beyond the finish line, the goal is clear: to have a good sporting time 💪. You can feel like a real Texas cowboy by treading the streets of Austin (not on a trusty steed, unfortunately) 🐎. And since your level of fun might not be the same as others, the organization has provided several formats: 5 km, 10 km and a half-marathon 🌆. Everything is good to properly celebrate this national day. If you traveled with family, a 1 mile (1.61 km) course 🏃‍♀️ is part of the festivities. Oh yeah! If

you haven’t found what suits you, don’t worry, the race also exists in a connected version 📲.

Run For The Water

One Race. A Lifetime of Change.

The Gazelle Foundation knows that clean water is the key to life. But no one knows this better than the people of Burundi. For more than 11 million people, access to clean water means better health, a stronger community, jobs, education, and, most of all, hope.

Your race directly funds building water systems in one of the poorest countries in the world. Our Mission. Your Movement For Change.

We're celebrating 20 years of Run For The Water!

For two decades, the Gazelle Foundation has thrown the best race in town. Each November, over 5,000 runners and walkers take to the streets of downtown Austin for the annual Run For The Water 5K, 10-Miler, and Kids K through our beautiful west Austin course.

The race benefits the Gazelle Foundation, dedicated to providing clean water to the people of Burundi. Clean water provides a path out of poverty, bringing access to better health, stronger communities, jobs, education, and most of all: hope. For those who prefer to participate in a virtual event, our Global Run is available.

Global Run For The Water is a virtual event that can be run, jogged, or walked from any location you choose. You can run for clean water wherever you are. Your Global Run can be completed beginning one week prior to race day.

Our unique loop format creates the perfect environment for pacing support, allowing pacers to join or exit at the start/finish area and access personal aid stations alongside their runner.

Pacers must register in advance, sign the event waiver, and follow all race rules including wearing their designated bib at all times.

Whether you need support for the full marathon or just those challenging final miles, our pacer-friendly course design offers the ideal setting for achieving your race day goals.
