parkrun registration stats this week 8th February 2013

There is still a little time for new registrations this week, but at the time of writing and compared to the figures in my post this time last week....

Totalling up new registrations across parkrun globally, shows that parkrun has attracted a further 5,284 registrations in a week, 860 more than at the same time last week.

This takes the total number of global parkrun registrations (according to my official source page on the parkrun website) up to 439,521 (up from  434,237). That is a growth in total registrations of over 1.2% in a week.

As far as I am aware, there is just 1 new parkrun starting this weekend:
Lake Macquarie (AKA Lake Mac) parkrun in Australia - welcome on board.

Malahide parkrun remains at the top of the charts in the number of new registrations category this week  with 127 new registrations in the week. Malahide parkrun has only been going for about 3 months and already it is the 47th largest parkrun by number of registrations.

9 different parkrun events have added 50 or more new registrants this weekand they are:

Event	Total	This week
Malahide parkrun	2676	127
Newy parkrun	2707	99
South Bank parkrun	923	92
Nahoon Point parkrun	2440	83
Lake Mac parkrun	123	81
Telford parkrun	168	69
New Farm parkrun	4588	66
Cheltenham parkrun	235	57
Carlisle parkrun	431	55

No great surprises in the "largest parkrun in the world" category this week, where it is still the same top 5:

Event	Total
Bushy parkrun	21519
Glasgow parkrun	12792
Leeds parkrun	11572
Brighton & Hove parkrun	10366
Wimbledon Common parkrun	10018

Wimbledon Common parkrun has now become the 5th parkrun with over 10,000 registered runners!

And at the other end of the spectrum, but just as worthy of a mention we have:

Event	Total
Wallace parkrun, Lisburn	1
Delamere parkrun	17
Tuggeranong parkrun	19
Thetford parkrun	49
Scunthorpe parkrun	56

There are also two other parkrun events listed but with no registered runners at present:

Hackworth parkrun

Llyn Llech Owain parkrun

Again the top three of these appear to be new parkrun events showing up in the new registrations page for the first time. Always great to see some new events on the horizon.
