The Wings for Life World Run brings people together from around the world. This global, simultaneous running event invites participants to run, walk, or roll against a (virtual) Catcher Car. The main goal is to raise funds for spinal cord research, with 100% of entry fees and donations going directly to the Wings for Life foundation.
The event takes place on the first weekend of May each year, with participants across the globe running at the same time to support those who cannot. In Munich, the run began at 1:00 PM with 14,000 runners. This year, over 310,719 people participated globally, and the organization raised more than €8.6 million. All entry fees and donations will fund vital research and clinical trials aimed at finding a cure for spinal cord injuries.
