Motion is Lotion 2026

Get ready to make every step count at the inaugural Motion is Lotion 5K hosted by Augusta University's Doctor of Physical Therapy Program, during National Physical Therapy Month! This electrifying event celebrates movement and honors the vital work of physical therapists in promoting active lifestyles for everyone. Our driven DPT students are championing this race, uniting people from all walks of life to champion wellness and mobility, while also supporting the PT profession. Whether you're in it to set a new personal best or to enjoy a leisurely stroll for a noble cause, you're invited to join in and experience the joy of movement. Let's come together to run, walk, and root for each other, because here, motion truly is the best lotion. All proceeds will energize future physical activity initiatives and the Augusta Universities Student Physical Therapist Association (SPTA). Remember to indicate your t-shirt size on our interest form—let's move for health, for fun, for life!
