Conquer Fitness vs. DEKA: Distanz, Stationen, Preis & Schwierigkeit im Vergleich (2026-27)

Conquer Fitness is a UK organiser of hybrid fitness races that combine running with functional workout stations. Its events offer solo and team categories and are designed to be open to athletes of all fitness levels.

Its main format is Level Seven: seven endurance-based workouts, or levels, completed back to back against the clock with a 450 m run between each one. Level Seven runs in spring and autumn at Alderley Park, Macclesfield, with categories for solos, mixed teams and same-sex teams and a compulsory seeding workout used to set start waves. Super Seven is a stadium version held at Northwood Stadium, using indoor sports hall workouts and track elements while keeping seven workouts. Station work includes rowing, SkiErg, bike erg, sandbag lunges, tank pushes, farmers carries, devil's presses and shield carries. From 2026, results are recorded per level and masters (45+) podiums were added.

DEKA is a functional fitness race series run by Spartan Race and billed as the decathlon of hybrid fitness racing. Every DEKA event uses the same ten DEKA Zones. The time for each zone and the total time are recorded, so athletes can compare results with their own previous marks and with a global leaderboard.

The flagship DEKA FIT puts 500 m of running before each zone, for 5 km in total. DEKA MILE uses 160 m runs for one mile in total, and DEKA STRONG is the ten zones with no running. There are also DEKA Ultra (50 zones and 25 km of running) and DEKA ATLAS, a heavier ten-zone test with a 30-minute cap. Athletes who finish STRONG, MILE and FIT in one calendar year earn the DEKA Trifecta. Heats include Elite, Age Group, Teams and Ruck, so the series suits gym-goers as well as competitive athletes.
