The 2026 USA National Masters Combined Events Championships brings together the nation’s most complete athletes for two days of speed, strength, skill, and endurance. The decathlon and heptathlon remain the ultimate test in track & field — the traditional proving ground of the “world’s greatest athlete.” In Dallas, that title is pursued again, Masters-style.

This year features a special Battle of the Sexes Combined Events Challenge, with elite men and women competing head-to-head using age-graded scoring. Different hurdles. Different implements. Same fire. Same fight.

Every clearance matters. Every throw counts. Every tenth shifts the standings.

Two days. Ten events. One question:

Who stands as the greatest all-around Masters athlete in America?
