The Royal Run: 2019-2024

[stellam]

I am aware of that, but now new spaces have been made available.

 

[polyesco]

Renewed interest? Royal Run 2024 was sold out 30. December.

Yep, tickets flew off the shelf fast. As all years have been sold out, with bigger numbers each year. This has become a true staple in the calendar.

Yep, tickets flew off the shelf fast. As all years have been sold out, with bigger numbers each year. This has become a true staple in the calendar.

It really is a much anticipated event. And, it has grown year after year. Last year it was a record number of entries with over 90,000 participants. This year it sold out in record time when registrations were opened....great to see that additional spaces were opened. I believe I saw something back when it sold out in November/December that they would work on seeing if new spaces could be added. Glad to see they were able to do that!

I wonder if Christian will go solo this year and perhaps cover a run on his own.

Per the press release, the 2024 Royal Run has reached a new record of 95,000 participants! Just amazing what King Frederik has built with this event. It has grown year after year! Amazing!

"When Royal Run takes place, His Majesty The King, Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness The Crown Prince will participate
The king begins the running party in Fredericia and afterwards will participate in Aarhus and Copenhagen/Frederiksberg.
The Queen also participates in the Royal Run, when Her Majesty starts in Kalundborg, while the Crown Prince is now taking an even bigger part in the Royal Run when His Royal Highness is running with Brønderslev."

Det bliver et helt særligt Royal Run ’24, der finder sted 2. pinsedag i fem byer på tværs af landet. H.M. Kongen skyder årets motionsfest i gang i Fredericia, mens H.K.H. Kronprinsen for første gang i Royal Runs historie tager ud i landet for at besøge én af værtsbyerne og løbe med.

"HRH The Crown Prince comes to North Jutland
Since the beginning of 2018, the entire Royal Family has shown great commitment to the Royal Run, but for the first time the Crown Prince takes a larger part in the Royal Run when he goes to Brønderslev and runs in the company of the 9,000 registered participants in North Jutland. This is something that arouses great excitement in the city:

"It is really big for us that the Crown Prince is coming to Brønderslev to take part in the Royal Run. We promise that we will probably have to buckle down to give him a good experience on his first trip out of the country in this way," says mayor of Brønderslev Municipality, Mikael Klitgaard (V).

The royals' participation in the Royal Run will take place as follows:

HM the King starts the Royal Run in Fredericia
HRH The Crown Prince participates in the Royal Run in Brønderslev
HM The King participates in the Royal Run in Aarhus
HM The Queen participates in the Royal Run in Kalundborg
HM The King participates in the Royal Run in Copenhagen/Frederiksberg"

"Royal Run Danmark elaborates that this is about the message "Together we can do more than we think", which is written on the back, and which is to remind the runners of their achievement."

Gemmer på et lille minde: Her er årets Royal Run-medalje

Medaljen til det kongelige motionsløb er klar – og den gemmer på et lille minde som en highfive til alle løbere.

A great message. Every year there are more and more first time participants.

"A historic goal portal
Wow! Now there is another good reason to look forward to the Royal Run in Copenhagen!
As in previous years, Amalienborg is the destination for our 10 km, 5 km and One mile distances. But this time we are taking the tradition to new heights with a goal portal that oozes history and elegance.
The finish line itself will be in the historic Colonnade, which is the colonnade that connects Christian IX's mansion and Christian VII's mansion. The colonnade was built in 1794 so that the King and Crown Prince could then move between the two mansions without having to go outside.
The colonnade has since witnessed centuries of history, and now it is waiting to pay tribute to our 42,500 participants in Copenhagen on 20 May. "

The whole thing is made form painted wood. It was probably a bit too expensive at the time to make it of stone. But it's such a charming detail that they have kept it that way.
It connects QMII's residence with the guest-mansion and it happens that she pops across via the colonnade rather than venture outside across the square. Much less commotion as well.

Spectacular arrival at Royal Run in Fredericia

When H.M. the King opens this year's exercise party, it will be with arrival in the most beautiful way possible with the Royal Ship Dannebrog, which will be in swing off Øster Strand.
The king runs the first tour of the day in the historic fortress city, before the tour continues towards Aarhus, after which the day will be finished in Copenhagen/Frederiksberg.

Thanks, Polyesco.

A minor correction and I'm not surprised Google translate missed this seldom heard word outside the navy: Svaj = at anchor, close from shore.

I love they use they royal yacht for events like this. Not only an impressive entrance but a great treat for all the people there!
