    RUN FOR THOSE WHO CAN’T
    The Wings for Life World Run is a global charity race held in May every year. The motto is to run for those who can’t. Participants support a worthy cause when they take part as 100% of your entry fees goes to the not-for-profit organization Wings for Life and helps to find a cure for spinal cord injury. The run is unique as thousands of people across the world take part at exactly the same time – either running at a Flagship Run or connected with the App.

    HOW DOES THE RUN APP WORK
    Download the Wings for Life World Run App on your phone and register for Wings For Life World Run taking place on Sunday 8th May 2022. Your App will keep you updated by telling you how far ahead you are of the Catcher Car, and telling you when you are eventually caught. Then your race is complete and you will see your result on the global result list.

    THE RUN ROUTE
    The route takes runners across the four islands situated off Dubai's Deira District. The route covers 15km in one loop, with refreshment stations every 3kms and a Race Village located at the Start/Finish line that includes food outlets and entertainment.

    WHO CAN TAKE PART
    Whether you are a hard-core runner, a walker or a crawler, in a wheelchair, a fancy-dresser or a dedicated long-distance runner looking to give to charity or get into shape, why not give it a go.
