Charity
Team Cicor at the 2024 Wings for Life World Run
213 Cicor runners took part in this year’s charity event, doubling last year’s donation and distance.
On Sunday, May 5, 213 runners from 15 Cicor locations in 7 countries took part in this year’s Wings for Life World Run. Together, we raised over CHF 7,000 for spinal cord research, a significant increase from last year’s CHF 2,100. The Cicor Group and Friends team covered an incredible 1,211 km and finished 79th out of over 10,000 teams. A big thank you to everyone who ran, supported and donated.
Congratulations to the fastest in the group - Kallum from our Hartlepool site ran an incredible 32.3km. Phuong from Cicor Vietnam in Thuan An City covered 14.8 km to take first place in the women’s team rankings. An honorable mention goes to Keith from our Newport site. As the oldest member of our team, he ran 27.8 km, placing second in the men’s category.
As a global event, the 2024 Wings for Life World Run united 265,818 participants around the world by uniting them around a common cause: Running for those who can’t. This year’s run raised 8.1 million euros for this cause.
Thank you to everyone who participated and to those who helped organize the event at the various locations. We can’t wait to participate again next year and look forward to an even bigger Cicor Group and Friends team! Mark your calendars for May 4, 2025
