From DTM
Flat out for the healing of paraplegia - that's the goal DTM ace Martin Tomczyk and the foundation ‘Wings for Life' jointly are pursuing since the foundation's creation back in 2004.
Since then, the DTM driver has regularly been supporting the foundation for the healing of spinal-cord harms in numerous events.
And now, Martin Tomczyk will become ambassador of the ‘Wings for Life World Run' held on 04th May, 2014. The unprecedented running event will be contested simultaneously by sportswomen, sportsmen, celebrities and hobby runners on all the five continents and in 40 cities.
100 percent of the revenue produced by the long-distance run will benefit the donation ‘Wings for Life' that financially supports the research in the spinal-cord injury area.
This running event unifies athletes all over the world - and it goes without saying that Martin Tomczyk, an enthusiastic runner himself, supports this project.
“I'm inspired by the idea of thousands of people simultaneously having the same goal: to make paraplegia curable,” says Tomczyk. “It's not about records, times or the competition but about the joint goal. That's what fascinates me.”
