The UK DPT 5K is a fall 5 kilometer run and walk held at Coldstream Park in Lexington, Kentucky. The University of Kentucky Doctor of Physical Therapy program hosts the event, with proceeds supporting board costs for a DPT class. Packet pickup begins in the morning before the 9:00 a.m. race start.
The course is a simple 3.1 mile park route, open to runners and walkers, not exclusively competitive racers. Leashed dogs are permitted, participants receive T-shirts while supplies last, and each entry includes a raffle ticket. The raffle features local businesses like J + H Running, F45 South Lexington, CycleYou, and Unify Coffee.
