And now the organizers are putting on another 1,750 tickets for sale, so Crown Prince Frederik ends up celebrating the Reunion with over 20,000 souvenirs at Pentecost next year. "Per Hussmann, who explains the huge support behind Royal Run Southern Jutland with many things.- I think it's a combination of the Crown Prince, the Reunion, the joy and the royalty, he says." "In addition to being an invitation to exercise, Royal Run in Sønderborg is also an element of the celebration of the 100th anniversary of Denmark's reunification with Southern Jutland. The Crown Prince's great-grandfather, King Christian X, became the symbol of the Reunion in 1920 when he rode across the old Danish / German border at Christiansfeld."

mls Posted May 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) On 3/25/2020 at 3:03 PM, mls said: Royal Run postponed until 6. September, 30 August in Nuuk, Greenland http://kongehuset.dk/nyheder/royal-run-2020-cancelled "Because of the spread of coronavirus/COVID-19, Royal Run 2020 is cancelled. At the same time, Royal Run 2021 is planned to take place on 24 May (Whit Monday) across Denmark and on 17 May in Nuuk, Greenland. Due to the spread of coronavirus/COVID-19 and the consequences of this for society, the 2020 edition of Royal Run was first postponed from June until September. But now a unanimous steering group has decided that Royal Run has to be completely cancelled. The year’s Royal Run would have been the third edition of the event, which last year got more than 80,000 Danes to lace up their running shoes. In connection with the cancellation, His Royal Highness The Crown Prince says: “Royal Run has, in just a few years, developed into a day with celebration, colors and, above all, a fantastic running fellowship across the country. Thousands of people have shown their support, both as participants and as spectators – it has been a true national celebration. But to gather together so many people at the beginning of September this year no longer appears to be realistic. Royal Run will, quite simply, not be able to be held in the spirit that has characterized the run – a gathering point for Danes across all ages, across the kingdom. I will instead, together with my family, look forward to Whitsuntide 2021, when hopefully we can gather once again for a Royal Run as we know it. Until then, I hope that all will maintain the joy through running and physical exercise.” Several years ago, The Crown Prince came up with the idea for Royal Run in connection with his 50th birthday. Royal Run is not a classic race that emphasizes finishing times. It is possible both to run and walk all of the distances, and there are special miles for families that want to push the baby carriage along the route. Royal Run is arranged by the organization “Bevæg dig for livet” in a collaboration between The National Olympic Committee & Sports Confederation of Denmark, DGI and the Danish Athletics Federation."
