The Wings for Life World Run is the world’s largest running event with over 200,000 participants annually from 195 countries. People of all abilities are welcome to participate, whether they run, walk, or roll in a wheelchair. The unique format of the Wings for Life World Run ensures that individuals of all fitness levels can join in.
In preparation for the event, there will be new arena and on-field branding, as well as special promotions to encourage fans to sign up. The run takes place globally on May 5 at 7 am ET and aims to raise vital funds for research into finding a cure for spinal cord injuries.
The Wings for Life World Run is not like other traditional running events where participants race towards a fixed finish line. Instead, there is no finish line but a virtual “Catcher Car” that starts 30 minutes after the race begins. Once the Catcher Car overtakes you, your race is over. This makes it an accessible and inclusive event for people of all ages and abilities to participate in.
