ABOUT WINGS FOR LIFE WORLD RUN
The Wings for Life World Run is different. It's not like other races. Everyone across the planet starts their race at exactly the same time - 11:00 AM UTC or 04:30 PM IST (Indian Standard Time).
That means participants in the UK start at 12:00 PM, in Germany at 1:00 PM, in Florida at 7:00 AM, in India at 4:30 PM and so on...
Together, we run for those who can’t. For people who can’t enjoy the freedom of moving their body. We run to help find a cure for spinal cord injury.
Professional athletes, fun runners and total beginners are all in it together against the Catcher Car. The best bit? 100% of all entry fees and donations goes directly to spinal cord research to find a cure for spinal cord injury.
ABOUT THE VIRTUAL CATCHER CAR - OUR MOVING FINISH LINE
In the Wings for Life World Run, you get chased by a moving finish line - the Catcher Car. You can run as far & as fast as you want. Once overtaken, you are a finisher! At the very same time people from all around the globe are running, walking or rolling with you.
There is NO finish line. There is a Virtual Catcher Car that begins its chase 30 minutes after the start signal. Fun runners, for e.g., make it to kilometer 5. Professional athletes power on to over 60 km.
