Image from store Running Challenges

Description from store Use your parkrun results to complete running challenges and get badges on your profile! Become a 'Tourist', 'Alphabeteer', shout full-house in 'Stopwatch-Bingo' and many more! But why should runners have all the fun? Collect the purple volunteer badges too by helping out each week at parkrun, and level up by doing a role 5 times or more to gain stars. This extension augments your athlete results page to include your progress towards the available challenges - and adds an extra badge below your name at the top when you have completed each one. You can also have a look how your friends are doing by browsing their profiles too. Visit https://running-challenges.co.uk for more information You can set your home parkrun in the options (when you set your athlete number) to make the shortcut link go directly to your regional parkrun page (rather than it always linking to the .org.uk site), this will also give you extra map layers and stats! This extension is not official or affiliated with parkrun in any way, it was created with love by keen parkrunners who just wanted to share the fun.

(2018-12-11) Prisha Bundhoo: The Best thing since parkrun. It is great that volunteer badges make up a big portion of the badges to obtain thus encouraging everyone to volunteer. Also that none of the challenges have to do with your ability to run fast.
(2018-11-19) Dominic Watts: I absolutely love this. It's such a great and clear way of reflecting all the data-nerdy elements of what Parkrun gives me and has shown me many many new things and challenges that I never knew existed but now strive to achieve.
(2018-09-27) Steve Byrne: My enthusiasm had started waning and this has given me a fresh start and new targets.
