Wings for life world run

The Wings for Life World Run is a unique and global race for everyone – both runners and wheelchair participants. Instead of a finish line, participants run side by side to stay ahead of the virtual Catcher Car.

On May 10, 2026, participants of the Wings for Life World Run in Switzerland can also run together in Locarno. Meet up with your friends, download the Wings for Life World Run app, and join all the others who will run until the virtual Catcher Car catches you – of course.

The race starts exactly at 13:00:00. The virtual Catcher Car starts 30 minutes after the race begins at 14 km/h and continuously increases its speed until the last participants have been caught.

100% of all donations and entry fees go directly to spinal cord injury research projects.
