The Drop Glasgow is a unique navigation style running event in Glasgow that removes traditional route markings and sends participants out from an unknown location to find their own way back. Runners are transported by bus, released at a set distance and must navigate independently using only their own judgement and route choices.
The experience is based on self navigation rather than set course following, with distances measured “as the crow flies” meaning the actual running route will vary depending on decisions made on the ground. The terrain typically includes a mix of urban streets, paths, parks and riverside sections across Glasgow as runners make their return journey.
This Glasgow event is designed for runners looking for something different from a traditional road or trail race, combining endurance running with navigation challenge, route choice and problem solving in a city environment.
