About the 2026 Pies & Pub TaTa Trot 5k
The TaTa Trot starts and finishes at Pies & Pub, a restaurant right in Middlebury, and raises money for breast cancer research through the American Cancer Society. The course runs through the surrounding neighborhood, with pink gear common among both runners and spectators.
Bib pickup runs the evening before at Pies & Pub, where there is also a happy hour to get the weekend going early. Race-morning pickup is available as well, but arrive early because it moves fast. Parking is behind the restaurant, on nearby streets, or at a park along a greenway path that makes a natural warmup walk to the start. Pizza and beer are at the finish.

Finish-Time Stats
Going by the 2025 results, this is a decent-sized field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.

The 2026 Pies & Pub TaTa Trot 5k has been held every year since at least 2025. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Jul 27, 2026.
