Sydney, Australia

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. Now on 10. května 2026 Wings for Life World Run participants in Australia can also run together in Sydney. 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 21:00:00. 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.

Our Sydney event returns to Royal Randwick Racecourse in 2026! We have made improvements to the course to widen it, allowing plenty of space for all participants. The course will begin outside the Winx stand and weave around to the track side before looping around the Old Members stand back to the start. 1 loop is approx. 1.1km in length and will cover mixed terrain of concrete and turf. Wheelchair uses will have a route that is 100% concrete along the track side of the course.
