Aosta, Italy

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 May 10, 2026 Wings for Life World Run participants in Italy can also run together in Aosta. 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 1:00:00 PM. 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 run along the ancient Roman walls and the new campus of the University of the Aosta Valley. The course will be approximately 2 km long. The race will be accompanied by music, food, and a refreshment stand within the green area. The mountains will frame the event!
