Wings for Life Run

Running Course
The start is located directly in front of the grandstand of the Forstenlechner Arena (home stadium of DSG Union HABAU Perg) and initially runs along the Naarn River heading south. After the second bridge, we cross to the other side of the river. The further course leads along the renaturation path to the Heubrücke (Hay Bridge). We continue over the Heubrücke to the parking lot by the indoor pool and back to the stadium. Under the grandstand, we go into the next round. Along the easy, wheelchair-accessible loop, there are two refreshment stations with water, fruit, etc. The easy loop, which has plenty of shade, is approximately 5.5 km long. At the end of the run, there will be a cozy conclusion in the stadium with food, drinks, and live music.

Schedule and Race Number
You will receive your race number via email a few days before the run, and you can also view it on the website alongside your start number. The Wings for Life World Run app is your timing tool. During the race, the screen can of course be turned off, and the app will continue to run in the background. The virtual catcher car starts 30 minutes after the start, and you will receive a clear signal through the app as soon as it catches up with you. Please remember to fully charge your phone on the day of the race.

Your Contribution to Finding a Cure
To participate in this organized app run, please download the "Wings for Life World Run App" for Android or iPhone and register in the app for the day of the race. A registration fee is required to participate in the "Wings for Life World Run"; 100% of this goes to spinal cord research. Once you have completed the registration for the day of the race, you can participate in this organized app run.
However, participation in PERG is also possible without the app.
