About the race
The Katie Oppo Memorial 5K Run/Walk is a community event held to fund ovarian cancer research through the Katie Oppo Research Fund, a 501c3 organization that supports research into SCCOHT and other forms of ovarian cancer. The prior edition took place at Flower Hill Village Park in Manhasset, NY on June 14, 2026; registration for future editions is not yet open and notifications are available when registration opens.
Event amenities include live online, text, and email results, free finish-line photos, and personalized bibs for registrations completed at least three weeks before the event. Race-day services include bib pickup; participants are asked to allow an extra ten minutes for pickup, to know their bib number or use the self-lookup area, and note that registrants within 24 hours of bib pickup may receive their bib number by text shortly after registering.
Awards recognize large team participation: photos are taken of the top five largest teams and the largest team receives refillable water bottles. Results and media are posted online with same-day finish-line photos and video; additional event photos are shared on organizer social channels. All proceeds are directed to the Katie Oppo Research Fund and are granted to research institutions and individual researchers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
