Glasgow, Verenigd Koninkrijk

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 9 mei 2027 Wings for Life World Run participants in United Kingdom can also run together in Glasgow. 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 12:00:00. 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.

Our Wings for Life World Run App Run will take place in the heart of Glasgow's West End, following a scenic loop around the beautiful Kelvingrove Park, one of the city's most iconic and popular green spaces.

Runners will make their way along the park's winding, tree-lined paths, with views of the River Kelvin, the magnificent Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, and the historic University of Glasgow providing an incredible backdrop.

The route will follow a loop through the park, featuring a mixture of gentle inclines, flatter sections and wide tarmac paths. With no fixed finish line, participants can complete as many laps as they can before the Virtual Catcher Car catches them.

Surrounded by stunning Victorian architecture, green spaces and the atmosphere of Glasgow's West End, Kelvingrove Park is a fantastic setting to bring the running community together for this global event.

Whether you're running, jogging or walking, come and experience one of Glasgow's most beautiful parks while supporting an incredible cause.
