Braga, 葡萄牙

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 2026年5月10日 Wings for Life World Run participants in Portugal can also run together in Braga. 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 12:00:00. 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.

Where history intersects with hope, a race with a greater purpose is born: to transform kilometers into research opportunities, to transform effort into scientific advancement, to transform lives... Starting from Avenida Central, we take the first steps on a journey that goes far beyond sport - a journey of solidarity, courage, and commitment to the future. Along the route, designed through the heart of the historic center of the two-thousand-year-old city of Braga, always traversing pedestrian areas, you can admire some of the beauties of this August city, such as the Theatro Circo, Largo Carlos Amarante, the Cathedral, Largo do Paço with the Rectory of the University of Minho, the colorful Jardim de Sta. Bárbara, and, of course, the Arcada building. We don't run or walk just for ourselves, but for all those who believe that science can restore movement, autonomy, and hope to those living with a spinal cord injury
