The parkrun thread

Recommended Posts

In the week that sci-fi fans mourned the death of Peter Mayhew (who portrayed Chewbacca in the Star Wars films), it seemed appropriate that parkrun took place on May the fourth.

There were 53/53 parkruns in the Yorkshire and The Humber region.
Of 53 runs completed both last week and this, 46 had higher attendances, six were lower and one (Northallerton (107)) was the same.
The largest fall in attendance was at Scunthorpe with a drop of 34.
Total attendance was 14760 (third highest ever), an increase of 3339 (29.2%) from the previous week.

Sheffield Hallam broke its own record for the highest ever attendance in the region (884, previously 868).

Bramley & Goole both had attendances of 193 and Cliffe Castle & Sewerby had 191.

Niche stat of the week is that there have now been exactly 500 parkruns in the region with attendances between 61-70.

The average weekly attendance over the last 12 months has increased by 28.3% (8757 to 11239). The mean attendance per parkrun per week over the history of parkrun for the region is 206.6; the median is 167.

The launch of another new parkrun in the Yorkshire and Humber region means it is now possible to get the Pirate badge without venturing outside the region.

There were 50/54 parkruns in the Yorkshire and Humber region. Cancellations at Bradford, Rotherham, Sheffield Hallam and Storthes Hall (all had other events taking place).
Of 46 runs completed both last week and this, 27 had higher attendances and 19 were lower.
Total attendance was 13496 an increase of 111 (0.8%) from the previous week.

Conyngham Hall launched with an attendance of 137.

Goole had a new record attendance of 219 and Horton Park had 134 (matching its previous highest). Serendipitously both these parkruns inaugural events took place on 30 May 2015. Horton Park has had just 10 events out of 206 with over 100 present.

Huddersfield & Woodhouse Moor had attendances of 645, Normanby Hall & Pontefract had 321, Goole & Halifax had 219 and Humber Bridge & Myrtle had 205.
