2024 Louisville Triple Crown of Running

Let’s get down and derby! The Louisville Triple Crown of Running is returning to Kentucky. Come and run in the trio of races that the local running community has come to love for nearly 40 years!  The series kicks off with our 5K on March 2, 2024, followed by our 10K on March 16, and concludes with the 15K on March 30 – OR if you can’t make it – take advantage of our virtual option! Run one or run all – it’s entirely up to you. (Bonus! Complete all three and get the exclusive Triple Crown of Running jacket!) Come and run with us and get cheered on by the Derby City faithful!

These races fill up as fast as a horse at Churchill Downs. So, if you’re looking for a race in 2024, or looking to try out a new distance in the new year, don’t hesitate. Join the Louisville Triple Crown of Running community today.

All of our races offer unique swag to take home. In addition to commemorative race medals, 5K swag will be released when registration opens, 10K runners will receive our long-sleeve shirt with hoodie, and 15K runners will receive our quarter-zip. Want to run all three races? Then you’ll take home all three PLUS the coveted Triple Crown windbreaker. Check out a sneak peek of the 2023 gear below:

The WHAS Crusade for Children, Inc., established in 1954 by WHAS-TV, raises money for agencies, schools and hospitals that provide direct services to children with special needs. Thanks to generous contributions of goods and services, the Crusade grants 100% of all donations to more than 200 organizations in Kentucky and southern Indiana. No money is sent to any other national charity or organization.

In its first 68 years, the Crusade has raised more than $200 million providing critical assistance to millions of children in 120 Kentucky counties and 50 southern Indiana counties. Together we can make life better for more children with special needs. With the help of our participants, sponsors and volunteers, we just keep getting BETTER!​
