How it spread

Trace the origin

Bushy began with 13 runners. AP describes a friend’s plan persuading the founder to try a second venue. Local volunteers then reproduced the format, including a Leeds team led by university lecturer Tom Williams.

Documented milestone; not a measured attention peak.
