Run Drugs Out Of Town

Lace up for a race with a powerful purpose at the Run Drugs Out Of Town 5K, taking place on Saturday, June 27, 2026, at Macomb Community College, Center Campus in Clinton Township, MI. This annual event, celebrating its 18th year, is more than just a 5K; it's a profound movement of hope, unity, and recovery, organized by Families Against Narcotics (FAN) to raise critical awareness about addiction and support those affected by substance use disorder. Runners will navigate the paved grounds of the college campus, offering a generally flat and accessible course for participants of all abilities.

The Run Drugs Out Of Town 5K fosters a supportive and impactful atmosphere, encouraging participants to form teams to honor loved ones, celebrate recovery, and stand with those still fighting. The sense of community is palpable, with team banners displayed at the event, creating a visual testament to collective strength and remembrance. Following your finish, enjoy a post-race picnic featuring food, snacks, and drinks. Typical race day conditions in late June often see highs around 82F and lows near 63F, with a low chance of precipitation, making for pleasant running weather as the 10:00 AM race start approaches after walk-up registration begins at 8:30 AM. Every stride taken helps break the stigma surrounding addiction and strengthens community bonds.
