Pörtschach am Wörthersee, オーストリア

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 2026年5月10日 Wings for Life World Run participants in Austria can also run together in Pörtschach am Wörthersee. 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.

The run starts on the lawn right next to Villa Rainer. From there, the route leads across the parking area onto the paved running path along Lake Wörthersee, heading towards Krumpendorf. The first kilometers are calm and easy. After about 4 kilometers, the course turns into a roughly 1.7-kilometer loop before heading back along the lakeshore towards Villa Rainer. In total, the route covers around 6.3 kilometers – surrounded by nothing but nature and the unique feeling of Lake Wörthersee.
