About

The Drop - Manchester, held on 25 October 2026 in Manchester, is an endurance challenge over 15 miles (24.1 km) or 10 miles (16.1 km) in which participants must find their way back from an unknown location, with an 11am start.

After handing over their personal devices, participants, solo or in teams, are blindfolded and driven to a secret starting point. The aim is to make it back on foot, relying only on instinct and mental strength. No GPS, no compass, no outside help; sometimes a map is provided. There are no checkpoints or aid stations: the focus is on personal effort against the elements.
