What is the Wings for Life World Run?

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. Now in its eleventh year, on May 4, 2025 Wings for Life World Run participants in Germany can also run together in Gemmrigheim. 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 1:00:00 PM. 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.

Track

Wings for Life World Run again in Gemmrigheim: Nice race track around Gemmrigheim. Paved roads along the wineyards - slightly hilly route. It's not an official street, but due to farmers who might need to work in their vineyards there could be cars. I'm going to be on vacation that day, however I'm going the prepare the race track. White Arrows indicates to go straight ahead. Orange arrows indidcates a change of direction/crossing.

Wheelchair participants

Unfortunately this track has sections which will be difficult for wheelchair users. Please check out other App Run Events close to you or start as an individual participant wherever you want.

Refreshment station and local set up

There won't be any refreshment stations on the run – so make sure to bring your own drinks and snacks if needed.
