About the race
The Drop – Edinburgh is an extreme endurance race hosted by The Drop UK in central Edinburgh at Up and Running, 20 Queensferry Street. Participants choose a 15‑mile or 10‑mile challenge, solo or in a team. After registration, electronic devices are surrendered and runners receive a race number and an emergency bag.
They board a bus, wear blackout safety goggles, and are driven to an undisclosed drop‑off, then must navigate back to the event centre. Distances are measured as the crow flies; the actual route may be longer. No maps, GPS, routes, or compass are allowed.
An optional live GPS tracker enhances safety and progress sharing. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
