We pride ourselves on our fun, knowledgeable and genuinely kick-arse running guides who know each corner of our beloved city. We will periodically feature one of them to show you an inside peek into Running Copenhagen as well as give you some tips for your adventure of a lifetime in Copenhagen.
Meet Henrik
Favourite running Tour:
The long ones…
(Long running tours: Copenhagen Long Run, Deer Garden Half day Running Tour, Copenhagen Half Marathon Tour – ed.)
Best thing about conducting running tours:
Meeting the coolest people from all over the world.
Most memorable running guest(s):
Wow – so many, cannot really pick one. However, I do recall a team of local runners who clearly outpaced me though… Very tough to get over!
Why are you a kick-arse guide?
Primarily because I am such a nice guy but also because I love to run. In addition, I know a little about a lot of things and I love to share.
Favourite Newline piece of running gear?
Easy – thats the “brynje” to be worn beneath all the other cool Newline stuff.
If you had to create a running tour, which one would it be?
The “Coast 50k” – a nice run along the coast of Sealand from Amager Strand to Helsingør (we’ll take the train back to Copenhagen). No guiding – just running and small-talking.
Favourite local restaurant:
Based on visiting frequency it must be “Cafe A” on Strandlodsvej. Great burgers!
Best local tip:
Avoid “Strøget” at all costs and book a run with the cool guides from Running Copenhagen.
Beer of choice:
Cold ones.
