Lungau, Austria

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. Now on 10 maja 2026 Wings for Life World Run participants in Austria can also run together in Lungau. 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 race starts at the new Lungau Arena in St. Michael, located in the beautiful Murinsel recreation area. From there, the course follows the Mur River downstream – passing the golf course, St. Margarethen, and Unternberg, all the way to Tamsweg.

NEW in 2025: A flat additional loop with cheering zones and refreshment stations along the route – perfect for everyone who wants to run even more! 🏃‍♀️🎉
