Opole Bolko, Poland

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 Wings for Life World Run participants in Poland can also run together in Opole. 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 13:00:00. 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.

The route on Bolko Island is picturesque, flat, and free of significant elevation changes, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced runners. It follows shaded paths—featuring a mix of gravel and asphalt surfaces—that are shared by pedestrians and cyclists, ensuring a comfortable run even on warmer days.
