I'm not sure on the UK non existent parkruns but I did one in Denmark that didn't last long and have done a few in the defunct France.

UK courses have changed at 4 venues I've done for sure

2 now gone for me as well, Inverness and Taman Pudu Ulu in KL, Malaysia. I was sad to hear that one had stopped. I prefer Torvean to Inverness.

I have not yet had a bad effect on any parkruns and caused them to stop. Yet.

Did you do the Whin Park course mrs shanksi? It was fun if rather slow and muddy.

57.5 Days of Pain I'm not sure, it was laps of a flat, grassy field in the rain. It wasn't that bad, I just thought Torvean was nicer. 😊

Cuerden Valley, Hatfield Forest, Ellenbrook Fields, Tring, Heartwood Forest and Storthes Hall are my no longer existing events.

I believe Milton (was Cambridge) is a different course now? Bakewell (now Monsal Trail) is different to how I did it too. I think everything else is just a name change since I visited eg. Peterborough is now Ferry Meadows, Bradford is Lister Park.

No MrsS you did the original course. I did Whin Park. Wish I had done the original as well then I would have the hat trick
