The Drop - Leeds

About this event

The Drop strips away all the usual comforts of modern running events. Participants hand over their devices, get blindfolded, and find themselves deposited somewhere around Leeds with one simple task: find their way back on foot. There are no checkpoints, no aid stations, and no GPS allowed—just runners, their instincts, and the city or countryside around them. Teams or solo challengers can choose from 6, 10, or 15-mile distances, though the exact route is theirs to figure out. It's less about speed and more about navigation, resilience, and trusting yourself when the familiar props are taken away. An unusual test for those curious about what they're capable of without the usual safety nets.
