A Quick Dash for the Danish Royals: "Royal Run 2025"
Family members engage in an exercise session with King Frederik - Frederick engages in athletic activities with his family members.
Hey there, let's talk about the Danish royals shaking things up this Whit Monday! They happily took to their Instagram account, sporting their running shoes, to share a lively video compilation and snaps from the "Royal Run 2025."
From Boats to Bolognese
King Frederik X. (57), our boating man, started the day's events early in the city of Ribe, as captured by a selfie from a boat. Meanwhile, our queen, Mary (53), playfully revealed her dilemma of having to leave two family dogs behind in Korsør, who weren't exactly too thrilled. Queen Mary's photo featuring her goofing around with the stressed-out pooches is a reminder that even royals have their share of family drama.
Crown Prince Christian (19) joined the action in Viborg, completing a 5-kilometer run, and was snapped in a car en-route to the city. With over 97,500 participants in various Danish cities like Horsens and Copenhagen, the royals took the time to thank everyone on social media with a group shot of their other kiddos. Princess Isabella (18), Prince Vincent (14), and spin-twin Josephine donned their sportswear and smiled for the camera.
The Sweet Reward: Spaghetti Bolognese
Well, after a long day of running around, what's a family to do? The answer's simple: dig into a hearty bowl of Spaghetti Bolognese! This yummy tradition keeps the royals fueled and happy, and it's no secret that they look forward to it every year.

- In light of the Royal Run 2025 event, it seems that football wasn't the only sport the Danish royals were not going to be able to do, as the exhausted Crown Prince Christian could not join due to his participation in the 5-kilometer run in Viborg.
