Wings for Life World Run Canberra
The Wings for Life World Run App Run in Canberra takes place on May 10, 2026. Meeting and local set up are at Margot Wine Bar, West Kiosk, Queen Elizabeth Terrace, Parkes ACT 2600. The event is accessible for wheelchair participants and includes provision for wheelchair entrants.
Participants use the Wings for Life World Run App to take part. Runners and wheelchair athletes compete to stay ahead of a Virtual Catcher Car that begins pursuit 30 minutes after the race start at 14 km/h and then increases speed until the last athletes are caught. The event is part of a global series of App Runs that run simultaneously.
The course meets near Margot Wine Bar and follows a flat, scenic loop around Lake Burley Griffin. The route offers wide paved paths, a smooth surface, and uninterrupted views of Canberra landmarks. Local arrangements include a refreshment station, timing and race numbers, and a meeting point at the venue listed above. According to the event information, 100 percent of donations and entry fees go directly into spinal cord research projects.
