Wings for Life World Run

Join the global running revolution with Wings for Life World Run, the unique charity race app that lets you run for spinal cord research while competing against a virtual Catcher Car instead of a traditional finish line.

Unlike conventional races, you control your own distance and pace. Whether you're running, walking, or rolling in a wheelchair, you set the challenge that works for you. The innovative Catcher Car chases participants in real time, adding an exciting competitive edge to your workout. Every step you take directly supports the Wings for Life foundation—100% of your entry fee funds critical spinal cord research, making your personal fitness goal a meaningful contribution to medical science.

Run as part of a global movement. In 2024, nearly 266,000 participants from 169 countries joined simultaneously, and the 2025 event promises to be even larger. You'll be racing alongside tens of thousands of people worldwide at the same moment, creating a genuine sense of community despite the distance. Connect with friends in real life or virtually, or challenge yourself solo—the choice is yours. Preparation Run Mode helps you train effectively, while the Goal Calculator lets you plan your target distance with confidence.

The app keeps you informed every step of the way with accurate GPS tracking, so you can monitor your progress and share your achievement with friends using integrated sharing functions. Stay connected to your preferred language with support for 19 different languages, ensuring a personalized experience no matter where you are.
