Avery Hill a rough area??? Really??? Not sure which part you went to, it is one of the leafier almost gentrified districts in SE London and have I never encountered any problems running in or around the park. As with all things though, I guess it is just an N=1 Opinion. As to the parkrun, it is one of the best in the area in terms of less crowding, nice cafe, good route and friendly atmosphere ( another N=1 opinion ).
