About the Event

Trot, run, walk, roll, stroll, skip, mosey or saunter in the 2026 Peter De Mott Peace Trot!

The Peter De Mott Peace Trot is an annual 5k and 1-mile run organized and hosted by the Ithaca Catholic Worker in honor of peace activist, runner and Ithaca community member, Peter De Mott. Peter worked tirelessly to bring about a more just and peaceful world. This event has become a fun filled, family Father’s Day event in its sixteen years. We also invite serious runners to its well known fast course to try and equal race records. The suggested registration fee is $35 and increases to $45 on race day. You can pay as much as you can afford or can donate extra to help our important peace and community work. Either way, all participants will receive one of our newly designed collectable t-shirts. You will enjoy some nutritious food after the run and age group winners receive unique, practical, artistic or quirky prizes of their own choosing. Won’t you join us?

Registration opens at 7:30 am! The trot starts at 9:00 am! We will continue to trot in Cass Park, but this year we will be at the marina due to construction at our normal pavilion site.
