Bilbao Getxo, Spanje

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 mei 2026 Wings for Life World Run participants in Spain can also run together in Bilbao. 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 invite you to enjoy a unique experience running in one of Getxo's most special settings. Our race will start at Silvers Tavern, in the Marina, and will cover 2 km along Ereaga beach, with stunning views of the Cantabrian Sea. The route will continue to the iconic Old Port and return along the same route, completing a flat, circular 4 km circuit.

It will be an open and dynamic event, aimed at both runners and wheelchair users, so that everyone can be part of the experience. Each participant can cover the distance they want... until they are caught by the virtual car that chases them through the app. You set your pace, you decide your challenge.

No matter how far you go, every step counts. 100% of the funds raised will go towards research to find a cure for spinal cord injuries. Your participation is key!
