Summary
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.
