About the race
The Drop - York is a unique and challenging race held in York, UK, offering participants a thrilling test of navigation and endurance. Competitors choose between a 10-mile or 15-mile course, either solo or in teams. The race begins with participants being blindfolded and dropped at an undisclosed location, from which they must find their way back to the event center without maps, GPS, compasses, or any navigational aids.
Distances are measured as the crow flies, so the actual route may be longer. The event emphasizes self-reliance, resilience, and resourcefulness, with optional live GPS tracking available for safety and spectator engagement. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
