The course runs on the campus of Guest House, a treatment and recovery center set on historic grounds in Lake Orion. The route passes a notable old mansion, and the surrounding property gives the whole morning a quieter, more sheltered feel than a road race through town. Age group prizes go to the top finishers.

The Guest House Run Over Addiction 5k & 1 Mile Fun Run has been held every year since at least 2024. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 37:44, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:03:26, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.
It is a small race (90 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.
The 5K winner ran 20:42 while the median finisher took 37:44. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
