The Drop - Norwich

The Drop - Norwich takes place on 10 January 2027 over two distances, 10 miles (16.1 km) and 15 miles (24.1 km), both starting at 10:00. The Drop throws out everything runners know about races: it is a radical experience designed to push participants to their limits. After handing over all their electronic devices, they board a coach blindfolded and are dropped off at an unknown location.

The goal is to find the way back on foot, alone or as a team, relying only on instinct and mental strength over 16 or 24 km. This is not a race with checkpoints or aid stations but a personal quest to beat the elements, self-doubt and the clock: no GPS, no compass, no map (unless one is provided) and no outside help. Designed to inspire resilience, community spirit and self-discovery, The Drop is the perfect challenge for runners hungry for adventure off the beaten track.
