Magdeburg Herrenkrug, Niemcy

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 maja 2026 Wings for Life World Run participants in Germany can also run together in Magdeburg. 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.

Our Wings for Life World Run App event takes you through the beautiful Herrenkrugpark and directly along the Elbe River on a super flat course that's perfect for running, whether you prefer a relaxed pace or a fast one. The run is on a loop of approximately 4 km, which you can run as many times as you like. To keep you hydrated, there's a refreshment station where you can refuel before continuing on your way.
