Wings for Life World Run: Bring A Friend! On May 10, 2026, the world\u2019s largest running event returns as the community comes together to run, walk, and roll in the\u202fWings for Life World Run\u202f- and we hope you\u2019ll be right there with us on race day!<\/p>\n
As an added incentive, if you register between Jan. 23 and 30, you\u2019ll receive a free App Run voucher for a friend or family member courtesy of our partner adidas, as it\u2019s always more fun with a friend! They\u2019ll give you a free entry in the race for the person you most want to share it with. In other words, with just a single registration, you can double the fun and double the money raised to help find a cure for spinal cord injury.\u202f\u2764\ufe0f\u202fClick here to register.<\/p>\n
The Wings for Life World Run takes place annually and is known for its unique format, where all participants start at the exact same time across the globe. Unlike conventional races, there is no fixed finish line. Instead, the Wings for Life World Run is the only race where the finish line catches you. Thirty minutes after the start, a virtual \u201cCatcher Car\u201d begins its pursuit and gradually overtakes each participant, ensuring everyone finishes the event. When it does, your race is over. The last male and female participants to be caught are named the global champions.\u202f All proceeds go to spinal cord injury research! For more information, visit\u202fwww.wingsforlife.com.<\/p>\n
Thanks!<\/p>\n
