The return of Bakewell parkrun is in doupt. It is rumoured that the Peak Park authorities think that its too disruptive to other users of the Monsal trail.

The 250+ parkrunners  who are there from 8:30 -10:00 am, and who fill the cafe, don't count as 'users' of the Monsal trail!

Yorkshire parkruns - collect them all!

Andrew Tup   · 

 

The weather continued to hold good across the Yorkshire and Humber region as summer draws to a close.

55/60 events took place across the region for the second consecutive week.

Total attendance was 11500, a decrease of 456 (3.8%) over last week. The largest attendance was at Huddersfield (534); the smallest – for the second consecutive week - was at Frickley Country (35). Of the events that also took place last week, 18 saw an increase in attendance, 34 saw a decrease and one (Wakefield Thornes (297)) was the same.

The attendance at Frickley Country was the lowest attendance in the region since New Earswick also had 35 on 28 December 2019. The previous time a lower attendance was recorded was 14 December 2019 at Storthes Hall (29).

Chevin Forest’s attendance was more than double that of their inaugural event last week.

Chevin Forest and Rothwell both had attendances of 254, Goole and Millfield had 139, and Centre Vale and Humber Bridge had 126.

The rolling weekly average of 12529* over the last two years represents an increase of 5.0% when compared with the previous year (11937).

The usually peaceful world of parkrun has been stirred, if not shaken, by a comment below at 6:20 and the fateful words at 7:12 in the latest ' Free weekly timed' podcast.

Nice, pleasant weather once again across the Yorkshire and Humber region.

57/61 events took place across the Yorkshire and Humber region. Compared with last week, only York didn’t take place (Race meeting).

Total attendance was 10988, an increase of 247 (2.3%) over last week. The largest attendance was at Huddersfield (524); the smallest – for the third consecutive week - was at Bowling Park (38). Of the events that also took place last week, 37 saw an increase in attendance, 19 saw a decrease and one (Bramley (154)) was the same.

Roberts Park (255), unsurprisingly, more than doubled the attendance from their inaugural event last week.

Last week, Endcliffe had an attendance of 487 at its 488th event, this week it was 490 at its 489th event. Goole’s attendance (117) was exactly half of its event number (234).

Lots of ‘doubles’ (and a triple) this weekend:

Roberts Park and Rothwell both had attendances of 255, Millfield and Temple Newsam had 145, Barnsley and Nostell had 143, Cleethorpes, Goole and Wetherby had 117, Halifax and Northallerton had 103, Cliffe Castle and Humber Bridge had 102, Centre Vale and Potternewton had 95 and Frickley Country and Middleton Woods had 60.

Whilst there has clearly been a significant reduction in attendance at parkrun across the region post-lockdown when compared with 2019/20, the situation is most evident at Bowling Park.

For their first eight events (25 Jan – 14 Mar 2020), the average attendance was 184.9; since 24 July 2021 it is 51.4.

The rolling weekly regional average of 12222* over the last two years represents an increase of 0.20% when compared with the previous year (12197).

Yorkshire parkruns - collect them all!

Andrew Tup  · 1t08m3mhsa  · 

Apologies if this summary of the Yorkshire & Humber region is seeming a bit like ‘Groundhog Day’, with its remarkable consistency of events and attendance.

56/61 events took place across the Yorkshire and Humber region. Of the events that have returned post-lockdown, there were cancellations at Normanby Hall and Temple Newsam.

Total attendance was 11301, an increase of 313 (2.8%) over last week. The largest attendance was at York (582); the smallest – for the fourth consecutive week - was at Bowling Park (44). Of the events that also took place last week, 25 saw an increase in attendance, 28 saw a decrease and two (Barnsley (143) and Harrogate (395)) were the same.

Roberts Park (261), saw a small increase on last week for another new record.

Cleethorpes and Heslington both had attendances of 191, Dewsbury and Skipton had 161, Dalby Forest and Goole had 148, and Bramley and Humber Bridge had 131.

Of the 58 venues that have been running (no pun intended) for over two years, 16 have seen an increase in their attendance during that time when compared with the previous year and 42 have seen a decrease.

Of those to have seen a reduction in attendance, ten venues have seen that reduce by 20%+. For those that have seen an increase, just five are above 10%, with the highest at Concord (17%).

I will let the reader draw their own conclusions.

The rolling weekly regional average of 12167* over the last two years represents a decrease of 0.80% when compared with the previous year (12265).

*For an explanation of how this is calculated see the note posted on 24 July 2021.
