Who wants badges on Firefox and on Android devices? Here you go! running-challenges.co.uk/fir… Instructions for PC/Mac: running-challenges.co.uk/get… Instructions for Firefox for Android on phones/tablets: running-challenges.co.uk/get… #loveparkrun
Version 1.4.0 is out!
We've fixed a bunch of things that broke over the past year, and added a badge for the parkwalker volunteer role: running-challenges.co.uk/202…
Thanks to everyone who submitted fixes to help us out!

It's relative to your average location, not your home location. See explanation at running-challenges.co.uk/202… if you're interested.

It will probably move the av position a little but unless they're a long way away (will depend how many you've done and where) it shouldn't make that much difference.

Fun fact, while developing the first incarnation where it was centred on a configured home parkrun, if I set your home to Bushy you hadn't completed it!
Replying to @jeanpaultanner
As far as we know Firefox on Android still only supports a very select set of extensions that have been specifically vetted, so we don't expect our extension to reappear until their policy changes - who know when/if that will happen.
We've fixed a thing: running-challenges.co.uk/202…
plus, the extension is available on Firefox again, and it even works!

I'm afraid you are on your own there, we've never tested that.

You don't even have to be an uber-tourist for the average parkrun location to be some distance away - I'm in that boat. I've done 224 parkruns, including 134 at Winchester, but already I haven't done any of the parkruns within the 33 or 45km circles of my average location! - Andy
Coming soon to a browser near you ...

We'd like to but that information isn't available on your parkrun results page so we can't do anything with it.
Counts each consecutive different parkrun location until any one parkrun reoccurs (not necessarily your home parkrun).
Replying to @andytuna
Different problem there. A Firefox reviewer appears to have rejected all versions of the extension. It's not clear what, if anything, needs to change, and we can't resubmit it for reviewer until we have a new version (with changes). So we unfortunately can't fix it immediately.
Replying to @Milton1Dave
Please also show your appreciation to @russellb , who contributed many of the required fixes!
It's possible it is only fixed on English-language parkrun sites, so we won't make a proper announcement until we've got it working everywhere, and it is published in all the usual places
Latest update on the, currently broken, extension - running-challenges.co.uk/202…

When the extension is back working again, try going into your preferences, changing your home parkrun to something else and saving it, then changing it back and saving it. See if that helps.
