Great event
Sam Kennedy
A unique and great fun experience
It was our first “Drop” but it certainly won’t be our last. Already looking at other locations.

Makes a refreshing change from the usual well marked and aid stations routes this is all about diy
Birmingham was different than Manchester as you where looking for a small area within Birmingham area where as Manchester or Carlisle you are looking for the city then the final area my only complaint was did notice the taxi driver had his phone between his legs and was checking it but apart from that another cracking run not sure where next one will be will check list and pick another random one for fun

A great running event, especially if you're looking for something different to the usual half
It's a shame about the trackers not being available on the day.
It wasn't obvious that we'd run with our phones (in the bag) on the day, nor could we ask for directions.

Great fun!
Would be great to get tracked next time so people from home can watch us getting lost!
Sarah Summers
Great fun
First time entering one the "the Drops" event and won't be the last.
Such fun
Roger Taylor
Enjoyed this different approach to racing
Lots of fun with friends. You dont often spend so much time looking at the scenery around you in a race.

Having not seen anything like this advertised before I was very excited to see an event like this. It did not disappoint. Had such a fab day navigating back to the start point. Would definitely recommend.
