Chicago, United States

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. On 9. května 2027 Wings for Life World Run participants in United States can also run together in Chicago. 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 06:00:00. 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.

Meet us at Lincoln Park South (near the soccer and softball fields by the North Ave. Pedestrian Bridge) for a 6:00 AM CT start. We'll head across the North Ave. bridge to the Lakefront Trail and continue south. Runners will find a refreshment station at the 2.5K turnaround point, and from there, it's all about keeping ahead of the virtual catcher car. Complete as many loops as you can before it passes you!
