A private road can still be a public footpath.

I know "private roads" can be public rights of way and I will quite happily run down them (in these cases the private usually just means it is not maintained by the local council). But I won't venture onto private property unless there is a clearly signed/marked footpath/bridleway.
My problem is the many caravan/mobile home parks near me only have one way in and out. Many of them are not clear if they are private properties or public rights of way. One clearly has a No PRoW sign which I respect (even though I used to know someone living in the park). Another has no signs, but does have a barrier for cars, so I am unsure of this one. The others, I might just have to bite the bullet and take a risk!

There was constant tension in my last circle between various users of the Footpaths, Bridleways, Green Lanes and RoadsOpen to All Traffic. And as for the designated footpaths that were permanently a foot deep in slurry with the need for a degree in bovine management or disturbing the nesting pheasants... I took a pragmatic view of what accessible really meant. If I could reasonably get to it without harming myself, farm animals, trespassing or breaking the law then fine, otherwise it was clicked on.
I haven't yet sorted the new circle, but there is one area that is only accessible with a paid ticket, so that's off my list already. Unless I become a volunteer and get free access. Decisions, decisions

if you lived on a caravan park as described would someone running past seem unreasonable?? hmm not sure, but think id probably call it unreachable, I think this one is not at all clear cut

For me it would depend on whether I felt comfortable (safe) running somewhere which was theoretically accessible but in practice had some kind of barrier and was somewhere I'd never usually choose to run.

I mean, I'm all for the game encouraging me to get out of a running rut locally but there are still places I'd still not go, even for a bug.

Probably been asked before but is it possible to run an infected bug out of your circle?

Infected bugs are just like the others - if it's your bug (red with a yellow head) you can run it out.

Think I've read here that you get what the penalty that day is, back?

Not quite; you get whatever the current point value is, including any infection points picked up since the penalties were last applied, so you can get more points than the original penalty was.
