ATW Red Bull Announcement
This is Red Bull athlete Lucy Charles-Barclay. As many of you will know Lucy is the reigning Ironman World Champion and course record holder. What some of you might not know is that Lucy’s first ever triathlon was at an ATW event. Since then, Lucy has gone on an extraordinary journey to the very top of the sport and can often be seen at one of our ATW events, putting the hard yards in ahead of her next big challenge.
Whilst Lucy’s achievements are far beyond the realms of comprehension for most of us, her constant drive to push her limits is something we can all use to take our performance to the next level, no matter what that is.
Your ATW events, from now on, will also be fuelled by Red Bull who will be giving you that much needed boost to tackle the course and fly through to the finish, giving you the wings you need to push your own personal limits along the way. We are so excited to see Lucy’s journey continue and Red Bull being a part of ATW events.
THE WINGS FOR LIFE WORLD RUN IS THE WORLD‘S LARGEST RUNNING EVENT AND THE MOST INCLUSIVE ONE. ANYONE CAN TAKE PART— WHETHER YOU RUN, ROLL, JOG, OR WALK - REGARDLESS OF YOUR FITNESS LEVEL.
IT IS ALSO THE ONLY EVENT WHERE PEOPLE WORLDWIDE RUN AT THE EXACT SAME TIME - A SYNCHRONICITY THAT IS UNMATCHED.
THIS IS ACHIEVED THROUGH A FINISH LINE THAT CATCHES YOU, RATHER THAN REQUIRING YOU TO RUN TOWARDS IT.
AND THE BEST PART OF IT ALL - IT IS THE WORLD‘S BIGGEST FUNDRAISER FOR SPINAL CORD RESEARCH.
The Wings For Life World Run is just around the corner. Join Red Bull & Lucy Charles-Barclay (who will be the voice of the virtual catcher car) on Sunday May 5th.
By signing up now, you will receive a free Adidas running t-shirt that you can grab before race day. But that's not all, every single penny of your entry fee goes towards helping us find a cure for spinal cord injury.
Join us for a day of fun, fitness and fundraising. Whether you're a seasoned runner, or just enjoy a Sunday jog, there's a place for you in the Wings For Life World Run. With no pressure to perform, all you need to do is your best-and have a great time doing it.
An incredible £37 million has already been raised since 2014. With your help, we can make an even greater impact this year.
