Running for a good cause – Our Contribution to the Wings for Life World Run
Stronger Together
The Wings for Life Foundation, established in 2004 by Red Bull founder Dietrich Mateschitz and motocross athlete Heinz Kinigadner, funds world-leading research aimed at healing spinal cord injuries. The Wings for Life World Run is more than just a race – it’s a global charity movement. Participants all over the world run at the exact same time, and 100% of all entry fees and donations go directly into spinal cord research.
Our Tyrolit team joined from across five countries – China, Thailand, Turkey, Czech Republic, and Austria – covering a combined distance of 325.28 kilometres. Standout individual performances came from Theresa (25.81 km), Thomas (25.65 km), and Manuel (20.34 km).
In a strong show of support, our management donated €10 for every kilometre run by the team – resulting in a total contribution by the Tyrolit Group of €3,252.80 to the Wings for Life Foundation.
We’re proud to have taken part in such a meaningful initiative. Thank you to all who ran – every kilometre helps move us one step closer to a cure.
