Odense, Denemarken

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 Denmark can also run together in Odense. 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.

This year’s city route takes you through the heart of Odense – starting and finishing at Flakhaven, passing by City Hall, and winding through the charming streets of the old town. Along the way, you’ll pass Vestergade, Nørregade, and Slotsgade, where you can truly feel the city’s vibrant pulse before returning to Flakhaven.

Throughout the route, you’ll find water, Red Bull, and fruit, along with plenty of energy from enthusiastic supporters and Red Bull’s own DJ.

City Hall will also serve as the location for race bib pickup, as well as changing facilities and bag storage.
