Obertrum am See, Austria

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 Austria can also run together in Obertrum am See. 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.

The route leads from the Obertrum State Vocational School southwards to the Chapel of the Good Shepherd, then turn left onto Lindenhofstraße. At the end of Lindenhofstraße, turn left again towards the State Vocational School. The loop is flat and exactly 2 km long. The refreshment station is located next to the State Vocational School. Alternatively, you can run to the lake; this route is approximately 4.6 km long.
