Completing all North Yorkshire parkruns
There are currently 20 parkrun events in the present-day county of North Yorkshire, of which I have not yet completed any. The first was Albert which started on 31 May 2008 and the newest is York Community Woodland which started on 14 December 2024. The name for having completed all parkrun events in Yorkshire is “Yorkshire Pud-done”.
Five North Yorkshire events in the Tees Valley: Albert, Flatts Lane, Marshall Drive, Redcar and Stewart are in North East England region. All other North Yorkshire events are in the Yorkshire and The Humber region.
Castle Howard, Catterick and New Earswick were parkrun events in North Yorkshire but have now been permanently cancelled.
Numbers exclude 2k Junior parkruns and any events that are not open to the general public such as prisons or armed forces facilities.
All of the North Yorkshire parkrun events …
Below are each of the North Yorkshire 5k parkrun events in alphabetical order. A few things to note:
The interactive maps below take you to the approximate location for the course, typically the centre of the park. See the course instructions in the parkrun page for each event for specific directions to the start.
Course maps and elevation profiles show the route at the time that I ran it and may have changed since then. See the Course page in the event’s page on parkrun.org.uk for the current course outline. Note that course outlines are from Garmin data during a specific run and may vary from the officially measured distance.
Please contact me if you spot an event that doesn’t have a course map and elevation profile and you would like to donate one from your own run. I’m also interested in maps and elevation profiles for courses that have changed or where there’s a regular alternative route (e.g. Horsham). I’ll need a GPX file from your run plus the date. I’ll include a credit for you and will donate £1 to parkrun.
