News Regarding His Royal Highness Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark.

CP FredOn Sunday, September 29, 2013, His Royal Highness Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark presented medals and one big fat trophy to the winners of the 2013 European Volleyball Championships in Copenhagen.

Earlier, the future king of Denmark participated in yet another bike race.  This time it was the 2013 Merida MTB Marathon in Hillerød.  So, what race will Crown Prince Frederik participate in the coming months?  Oh, I don’t know…perhaps the 2013 Ironman World Championships in Kailua-Kona, Hawai’i on October 12.  I, mean, he is free (hence nothing on his official calendar, no official duties to complete) to play that day/to do what ever he wants.   🙂
