Maissau, 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 Maissau. 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 Maissau App Run Event starts at the sports field in the municipality of Maissau. After a short stretch on loose ground, the route follows the paved Urtlweg trail parallel to the Veiglgraben stream to the waste collection center in the municipality of Ravelsbach. There, the running route turns right and follows the Haselbach stream for about 1 kilometer on loose ground, where the route turns right again and returns to the starting point on partly paved, partly loose ground.
