January 5, 2021 Camille Estes

In 1993, the Rodes City Run 10k was the first leg of the Louisville Triple Crown of Running. The first Rodes City Run 10k was in 1981 but 1993 was and still is the coldest in the history of the race. With wind chill temperatures of -1, blowing snow and a strong headwind as runners were finishing the final mile westbound on Main St., finishing in front of the Humana Waterside Building.

John Wellerding and Camille Forrester Estes would come away with the wins and go on to both win the 1993 Louisville Triple Crown of Running.

Back in 1993, the Louisville Defender newspaper was a huge supporter of Louisville running and would always post several pages of participant photos. The 1993 Rodes City Run had seven pages dedicated to the action and candid shots of participants Click here to check them out!

If you have any memories and/or pictures of the 1993 Rodes City Run 10k, we'd love to see and you can share them on our Facebook page or email to runrivercity@gmail.com and we'll post them for you.
