Guf & Kugler Løbet is a road running event held at the Guf & Kugler ice cream shop, located at Bryggen 53 in Nibe, Denmark. It takes place in late spring or early summer, combining a local race day with ice cream at the finish. The primary listed distance is 5 km, though event listings also mention short children’s distances, 10 km, and a half marathon.
The 5 km course runs alongside the fjord near Nibe. A 2.2 km route, named the “I’m here for the ice cream” route, is available for younger runners, families, and those prioritizing the treat over their finish time. The race’s distinctive feature is its literal interpretation: participants sample an exclusive energy sports ice cream, specially crafted by Guf & Kugler’s ice cream maker, with a generous scoop awaiting them at the finish line. Additionally, runners receive a coupon for a 25% discount on one extra ice cream, valid only for the participant on race day.
