About
The Drop - Leeds is an endurance challenge in Leeds on 2 January 2027, with routes of 15 miles (24.1 km), 10 miles (16.1 km) and 6 miles (9.7 km); the two longer options start at 10am. Participants leave their devices behind, are blindfolded and taken to an unknown location. The goal is to make their way back on foot, alone or in a team, relying on instinct and mental strength.
This is a personal quest rather than a conventional race, with no checkpoints or feed stations. No GPS, compass, map (unless provided) or outside help is allowed. The experience aims to build resilience, community spirit and self-discovery for runners looking for adventure.
