Event Overview

The Wings for Life World Run - Milton Keynes is a global App Run event taking place on May 10, 2026. This race features a unique format where participants run or roll as far as they can until they are overtaken by a Virtual Catcher Car. The race has no fixed finish line; instead, the virtual vehicle begins its pursuit 30 minutes after the start, beginning at a speed of 14 km/h and gradually increasing its pace until all participants are caught.

Course and Location

The event is held at the Red Bull Racing Factory grounds in Milton Keynes. The route circles the factory area, and the reception serves as the central meeting point. Before the run begins, participants have the opportunity to visit the MK7 area and the warehouse at the facility.

Registration and Participation

This event is open to both runners and wheelchair participants. To take part, athletes must download the mobile app, which manages timing and tracks the progress of the Virtual Catcher Car. The organization provides a refreshment station and a local setup for attendees. All entry fees and donations are directed toward spinal cord research projects.
