An Overpass query for relation["type"="route"]["operator"~"parkrun",i]
throws up 38 mapped Parkruns globally of which I'm (at least partially)
responsible for mapping four. I should probably add some more, either from
memory or via tourism (could be a good personal project...)

I think if a bus route with all its potential complexity can be mapped then
a Parkrun can be as well - it's only 5km so how complicated can it be!
