ATHLETE JUDGE PROGRAM
DEKA is truly a fitness movement we all created together. To ensure a professionally judged racing experience for all athletes at the 2024 DEKA World Championship, we are launching a plan that will have each athlete judging one athlete before or after they compete in DEKA STRONG and DEKA MILE and provide 60 min of their time judging in a zone before or after they compete in DEKA FIT.

How it works:

DEKA FIT – 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.

DEKA STRONG & DEKA MILE – within 1 hour of finishing your race (or anytime before your race), head over to the athlete judge check-in area at Zone 1 to make yourself available to judge one athlete.

World Championships qualified athletes know the DEKA Zone Standards very well and make great judges. This support will play a key role in helping us all ensure the 2024 World Championships (and the years to follow) run smoothly and provide a great experience for all.

AJP registration Link coming soon!

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.
