Description
The University of Minnesota DPT program is springing (back) into action! After COVID prevented a 2020 and 2021 race, we are eager to hold the 5th annual Spring into Action 5K on Saturday April 30th, 2022. The day will include a 5K run/walk (or optional 2.5K walk), music, a prize drawing, and the chance to talk with current DPT students about running/recovery topics and more! Proceeds from this race go to the Foundation for Physical Therapy which allows research to be conducted in many different areas of PT - including research done at the University of Minnesota.
