Wings for Life World Run

Wings for Life World Run


The Wings for Life World Run is a truly unique and global race for both runners and wheelchair participants.

 

Instead of a finish line, competitors race side by side to keep ahead of the Virtual Catcher Car. Now in its ninth year, on May 7, 2023 Wings for Life World Run participants in United Arab Emirates can also run together in Dubai. Meet up with your friends, download the Wings for Life World Run App and join all the other people running until the Virtual Catcher Car catches you of course. The race starts at exactly 2023-05-07 15:00:00. The Virtual Catcher Car takes off 30 minutes after the start at 14 km/h and steadily increases its speed until the last athletes have been caught. 100% of all donations and the entry fees go directly into spinal cord research projects.

The route takes runners past the iconic pavilions and inspiring architecture in Expo City Dubai themed Sustainability, Mobility, Opportunity districts and including focal point of the site, Al Wasl. The route has a refreshment station. There will be water and refreshments available at the venue.
