COPENHAGEN JUST RUN - 21K
Runner on the ground - OLE
Lace up and enjoy a beautiful 21k route through Copenhagen with a local running guide.
Our ‘just run’ tours are light on the sightseeing and focus will instead be on a smooth running route with minimal interruptions from traffic lights etc yet still a good and interesting route.
A 21k run that ensures ‘no wrong turns’ and truly gives peace of mind. Where you as a runner do not have to worry about finding your way, getting lost or ending up in unwelcoming neighbourhoods. You will still get to have the local insights from your local guide in terms of modern life in Copenhagen, the best coffee bars, local restaurants etc.
Please note – this is not a ‘training’ run so don’t expect hard intervals, tempo runs or burpees along the way while we stay on a specific pace with military precision.
In case you would like to run a certain pace, then please put this in the comments during checkout so that we can do our best to find a guide that fits your level. No promises – especially if you are crazy fast!
We normally go all in on the sightseeing and tour elements of our runs, but sometimes our guests just want to run a beautiful and interesting route, avoid too many stops and in the company of a local running guide. That is what our ‘just run’ service is for.
So let’s Go! and Just run.
Cheri Payne –
This was our 2nd running tour with Go Running Tours during our 2 wk European holiday. Our London half marathon’ish distance tour was perfect in every way. This tour in Copenhagen of the same distance was just as great! Our guide in Copenhagen was Ole or “Ollie”. Communication prior to our departure, a day or 2 before the run and the day of the run were excellent We ran in to a slight delay with Ubers & getting off our ship. Delayed us only by 15 min but he was easy to keep in touch with as the morning was unfolding. Pre cruise he asked about our preferences for what we would see. Our only request was parks, waterfronts, bridges and anything along the way you think is worthwhile of seeing. He delivered 100%! Can’t remember the names of the parks we ran thru (he told us, I forgot 🙈). His route was well planned, scenic and easy to navigate. Areas were not overly crowded, etc. He even told us several days before our tour we’d have 3 water stops along the way so I knew in advance no need to bring water based on our personal preferences. He did a good job narrating along the way. He began our tour from our floating hotel by asking do we want a narrated tour, run in quiet to soak it all in, etc. He was very tolerant of all my many many questions. Yes, I tend to talk a lot and he was full of answers to my many many questions. He took pictures along the way. He sent them to us post tour. Handy and I love my fotos …just ask my husband. 😂 Ollie was an experienced runner. He’s run numerous marathons, ultras and both domestically and internationally. He’s clearly faster than us, but he effortlessly adjusted his pace & made our pace seem like his normal pace. Most importantly ….he did a good job accommodating 2 different paces between me and my husband. I had told him of this before our tour. There’s about a 4 min/mile + pace difference between us. Hubby and I run together frequently and have a system for keeping within visual or verbal contact at all times. I’m the one with all the questions and wants to hear all the narration. Husband is happy to jog at the back of the pack and do his thing. Ollie worked great with us so we could both enjoy this opportunity. This was a wonderful way to begin our 24 hrs on Copenhagen. Helped us acclimate to the city, gather our bearings navigation wise and made us feel like a local. We like feeling like a local on vacation as opposed to a tourist and both our London and Copenhagen tours accomplished this. These 2 tours on our 2 wk vacation were our 1st experience with Go Running Tous. We are now running home (pun intended) to book 2 more: next month in Buenos Aires and Nov in Singapore Thank you Ollie for a great morning!
