I don´t know german but in dutch yes, løber can be translated as loopen in most cases, when loopen is used in the sense of running, not sailing.

Løber is used for animal motion : horses, sprinters, Marathon runners and so on. For mechanical sports the word is kører : bikers, pilots... Perhaps there is a specific vocabulary used by experts ; I don´t know, because I am not very versed in sport

for video games, it can be kører or virker (Spillet virker ikke med Windows 10)
