Event Details
The Wings for Life World Run is a global running event with an app-run format. In Orange, Australia, participants will use the official mobile app to take part in a unique race format.
Course and Location
The in-person event in Orange starts at Sir Jack Brabham Park. The course is accessible for wheelchair participants.
Race Format
Unlike a traditional race with a set distance, all participants start at the same time. A "catcher car" begins moving 30 minutes after the start and gradually increases its speed. The race for each individual ends when the virtual catcher car, tracked via the app, catches up to them. The goal is to run as far as possible before being caught.
Additional Information
The event contributes to spinal cord research, as 100% of entry fees are donated to this cause. Participants need to download the official Wings for Life World Run app to run. There is a refreshment station and local setup at the venue. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
