Portorož Portoroz, Slowenien

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. Mai 2026 Wings for Life World Run participants in Slovenia can also run together in Portorož. 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.

We will start in front of the UP Faculty of Tourism Studies - Turistica and run through the Central Beach of Portorož. At the end of the beach will be the first turning point at 2km for recreational runners. All others will proceed behind the Marina Portorož and through the Lucija Camp site till Seča, where there will be the second turning point at 4,4km and the third turning point as aprox. 8km near Sečovlje/Sicciole Saltpans Nature Park. The route is mostly on concrete/asphalt floors.
