What is the Wings for Life World Run?
2019 will see the sixth edition of the Wings for Life World Run. The motto is the same as before: we run for those who can’t. It’s not a matter of fitness at all. From absolute beginner to competitive runner, from wheelchair athlete to power walker: anyone is invited to be part of the run.
The goal of the event is to raise money for the Wings for Life foundation who expedites spinal cord research. One hundred percent of all entry fees go towards projects that all have one common aim: one day, there has to be a cure for spinal paralysis.

Participant conditions – runners and wheelchair users
All participants have to be at least 16 years of age. Wheelchair athletes and runners start side by side in the same race. Sole provision: wheelchair athletes have to use their everyday wheelchairs for the race.
Important note to everybody: it is not allowed to wear earphones during the run because runners thus risk not hearing the catcher car approach.
