Schladitzer See, Germany

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 Wings for Life World Run participants in Germany can also run together in Schladitzer See. 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.

We simply want to offer a gathering point for anyone who finds the large-scale stadium event a bit too much. Come to Lake Schladitz and run your own routes. Before and after your run, feel free to stop by the Wolteritz car park; we’ll have a small refreshment station there, as well as an information point where you can follow the "big race" and check the results of the participants on-site. Unfortunately, we do not provide gifts, medals, or event shirts.
