Produced by Red Bull, the Wings for Life World Run has pioneered the concept of a 'Catcher Car' format, a signature innovation in which a vehicle gives runners a head start and then chases down the field at a predetermined pace until the last man and woman are caught and declared Global Champions.

Because every runner will eventually be caught by the pursuing finish line (the Catcher Car), beginners to dedicated athletes to competitors in everyday wheelchairs are guaranteed to finish the race and make a difference.
This past May, more than 101,000 runners from around the world registered for this global chase race and more than $4.7 million was raised for Wings for Life's single goal: to find a cure for spinal cord injury.
Over the first two years of this ambitious global endeavor, a grand total of $8.8 million has been amassed, with 100% of all entry fees and donations directly focused on the cause.

Worldwide, millions of people are dependent on a wheelchair after having sustained a spinal cord injury, most often as the result of a traffic accident or a fall. Wings for Life is a not-for-profit spinal cord research foundation with a single mission: to find a cure for spinal cord injury.
The Wings for Life World Run was launched in 2014 to benefit the not-for-profit Wings for Life Spinal Cord Research Foundation, which is dedicated to finding a cure for spinal cord injury.
