Note:
The Wings for Life World Run is happening on 8 May 2022. It is a 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.
How to participate? Download the Wings for Life World Run App and join all the other people running until the Virtual Catcher Car catches you. The race starts at 2 pm. Something to note is that 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. The track is a 1 km loop inside Oxygen park in Education City.
