EAST PROVIDENCE (Providence Business News) – University Orthopedics says its annual 5K, which was cancelled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, is a go for this year.

The Mark Palumbo Memorial University Orthopedics 5K is scheduled for Sept. 19. Registration is now open for the event, which welcomes runners of all levels along with walkers.
The race was renamed last year in honor of Dr. Mark Palumbo, a University Orthopedics spine surgeon who died in September of 2019.
