The Drop - Nottingham

About this event

The Drop strips running back to its rawest form. Participants surrender their devices, board a bus blindfolded, and get dropped at an unknown location in the Nottinghamshire countryside. From there, it's a solo or team navigation challenge back to the start — either 10 or 15 miles on foot, with no GPS, no map (unless provided), and no aid stations. This is fundamentally different from traditional road events: it's about mental resilience as much as physical endurance, using instinct and problem-solving to find the way home. The Drop appeals to experienced runners seeking something beyond marked routes and timing chips — a genuine test of self-reliance in an unpredictable environment.
