Royal Run Aarhus
The Royal Run race for runners of all levels of ability is an opportunity to put on your running shoes and join in the tradition sttarted by King Frederik of Denmark. In 2024, Royal Run is coming back to Aarhus - on Whit Monday, May 20 - and it will be a celebration for everyone.
The Royal Run in Aarhus took place in 2024.
The Royal Run
At Royal Run, it is possible to both run and walk. You can challenge yourself with distances of 10 km, 5 km, or participate in a 1-mile race, which is equivalent to 1.609 km. You can stay updated on the Royal Run website (danish) for more information.
It was originally planned as a one-off event, but due to its overwhelming success and positive reception from both participants and spectators, the Royal Run has developed into a recurring event that moves around to different cities across the country.
His Majesty King Frederik and his family also take part in the run, where you can meet them in a completely informal setting – in trainers and with sweat on their brows.
During the event, H.R.H. King Frederik and his family also participate, and you can casually meet them - in the run - and also in sneakers.
A Race for Everyone
Royal Run is for everyone, including children, youth, and the elderly. If you prefer to walk the route, you are also welcome to do so.
