Flanker7 Posted August 15, 2021 Author Share Posted August 15, 2021 Yorkshire parkruns - collect them all! Andrew Tup · 8iterSponsorhedi · The headline news in the Yorkshire and Humber region this week was not about the parkruns that did take place, but one that didn’t. Sadly, Catterick became the first parkrun in the region to be cancelled indefinitely. So as the number has reduced by one, 55/59 events took place across the region. Total attendance was 11943, an increase of 277 (2.4%) over last week. For the second consecutive week, the largest attendance was at York (570 – one more than last week); the smallest was at Bowling Park (42). Of the events that also took place last week, 23 saw an increase in attendance, 26 saw a decrease and two (Peter Pan (232) and Sheffield Castle (90)) were the same. Hillsborough and Woodhouse Moor both had attendances of 368, Beverley Westwood and Brighouse had 246, Cleethorpes and Peter Pan had 232, and Myrtle and Selby had 120.

Flanker7 Posted August 26, 2021 Author Share Posted August 26, 2021 Local parkrunner 'The Pirate' is no more, walked the plank, gone to Davy Jones's Locker. In a shock ruling from parkrun HQ 'The Pirate' name 'needed' to be changed. A source from within The Pirate's crew said:- 'The old sea dog is holed below the waterline and seeking solace with a tot of Nelson's blood. He vows to continue to fly the skull and crossbones and to search the 7 seas for new parkruns both at home and overseas." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
