Peyton's Promise 5K Run for CDH Research

Lace up for a cause at Peyton's Promise 5K Run for CDH Research, taking place on Saturday, June 6, 2026, in the picturesque Sea Isle City, NJ. This inspiring 5K event invites runners to hit the scenic Promenade, offering a flat and fast course with refreshing ocean views as you race towards the turnaround point at 6813 Pleasure Ave. Starting right on John F. Kennedy Blvd, the race provides an invigorating coastal experience for participants of all levels. Typical race day conditions in early June boast pleasant weather, with highs around 80°F and lows around 58°F, and only a 15% chance of precipitation, ensuring ideal running conditions.

More than just a race, Peyton's Promise is a heartfelt event dedicated to honoring Peyton Elizabeth Laricks and her courageous battle with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH). Every stride you take helps to raise vital funds for CDH research and treatment at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, making a tangible difference in the lives of children and families facing this condition. The uplifting atmosphere and beautiful setting create a memorable experience, drawing participants who are passionate about both running and supporting a crucial cause.

The spirit of community continues long after you cross the finish line. Join fellow runners, walkers, and supporters at the family-friendly after-party and award ceremony hosted at Paddy's Green. Enjoy a complimentary buffet and celebrate your accomplishment, perhaps with a taste of the special "Peyton's Promise pilsner" brewed by VonC Brewing Co., with all proceeds from its sales also contributing to the foundation. This unique combination of a stunning course, a meaningful mission, and a festive post-race celebration makes Peyton's Promise 5K a truly special event on the race calendar.
