The Drop Bristol is organised by Organic Adventure Ltd and offers a unique navigation challenge unlike a traditional running event. Featuring 6 Mile, 10 Mile and 15 Mile options, participants are transported to an undisclosed location before navigating their own route back to the finish without GPS, watches or electronic navigation aids.
Distances are measured as the crow flies, meaning the actual distance travelled will be significantly longer. After a blindfolded deployment, competitors must rely on their own judgement, observation and navigation skills to find their way back to the event centre. The 6 Mile challenge is designed for non locals, while the 10 Mile and 15 Mile options provide progressively greater physical and mental challenges.
Live GPS tracking is available for spectators, while sealed emergency equipment, professional event management and comprehensive safety procedures help ensure a safe and memorable experience. Combining adventure, endurance and navigation, The Drop Bristol offers a distinctive challenge for runners seeking something beyond a conventional race.
