About The Drop Edinburgh
Taking place across the landscape surrounding Edinburgh on 4 April 2027, The Drop Edinburgh strips back running to its most fundamental challenge: navigation by instinct alone. Participants choose from three straight-line distances—6, 10 or 15 miles—before surrendering phones, watches and maps and being transported by bus to an undisclosed drop point outside the city. From there, they must find their own way back to the event centre on foot, with no markers, guidance or external aids to rely on.
The actual routes covered will be considerably longer than the measured distances, determined entirely by the choices runners make in the field. Combining trail and urban terrain, the event demands self-navigation across a demanding and unpredictable landscape, rewarding personal judgement and route-finding ability.
