Mersin Panayır Caffe, Türkiye

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 10. Mai 2026 Wings for Life World Run participants in Türkiye can also run together in Mersin. 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 14:00:00. 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 event will start from the covered amphitheater area to the left of Panayır Caffe. Participants will run along the coastal promenade towards Mersin Marina. After reaching the marina, they will return to Panayır Caffe via the same route. The entire course is a completely traffic-free, flat, and safe running route along the coast. Participants can run at their desired pace and distance.
