Hörsching, Oostenrijk

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 Austria can also run together in Hörsching. 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 starting point with refreshment station and base for accompanying persons/spectators is the employee parking lot of Wacker Neuson Linz GmbH. The route covers approximately 6.8 kilometers and leads over asphalt and partly gravel through slightly hilly terrain. It offers a pleasant mix of flat sections and gentle climbs, ideal for runners of all experience levels. A shorter alternative route is signposted.
