The Drop Oxford

The Drop Oxford begins near Oxford at OX3 9AJ. Runners depart at 10:00 am, having surrendered phones, watches, and maps. Participants are blindfolded and transported to an undisclosed location, tasked with navigating back to the event centre without a marked course. The stated distances are 6, 10, or 15 miles, representing straight-line drops; actual travel on foot may be considerably more. The course is determined by each runner's solution on the day, combining trail and urban navigation throughout Oxfordshire, with no signage, marshals, GPS, or maps provided.
