WHAT WE DO?

WE PROVIDE RUNNING EXPERIENCES FOR RUNNERS THAT TRAVEL

…Or travellers that run. (Potato, potahto, Tomato, tomahto :-)). A worldwide community of happy runners who want to both show and see the world from a pair of running shoes. A burning wish to mix a healthy lifestyle with the unique opportunity to run with locals and truly get beneath the surface of an unknown destination.

HOW THE STORY BEGAN

THE IDEA TO CHANGE THE WAY TO SIGHTSEE A CITY

Let’s go back in time. In 2011, Lena (big boss and founder) closed her corporate laptop one last time and decided to trade in the suit, company credit card and her 200+ business travel days for a dream of showing her home city Copenhagen to visitors. A dream of showing a city to a traveller in a way that she herself had used on all her travels – by running. And voila here we are today.
 
 
Starting with the very first tour in 2011, that was booked 2 months after the company was launched (two months ?!?!?) to a global company with 50+ destinations driven by enthusiastic, fun and happy City Managers all over the world. A team of runners all committed to making running tours and local running experiences the number one way to discover a city, and to provide unmatched local insights to our guests.
 
 
In the early days in Copenhagen, it quickly became clear that the guests loved the running tours and would love to run next time they travelled to a different city. The synergies of having running tours in multiple cities were obvious and as they say – the rest is history. Today we have destinations all over the world, and in addition to running tours, we also over local race experiences, running holidays and local experiences on their own.
 
 
And here is a promise – we are on a mission to provide running tours in all major cities in the world and who knows….maybe one day more people will be doing running tours as opposed to bus tours. Much better for the environment, humanity and the local cities.
