After careful consideration, the race committee has made a decision to
raise the entry fees for 2001 to $3 (early) and $5 (late) . Rising costs contributed greatly to this decision and we
did not want these outside influences to hurt the quality of this event nor our charitable
contributions. The Rodes City Run has not had a fee increase since 1998 and is still
considered to be one of the least expensive, quality 10k's in the country.
