Description

This widget shows you your closest 25 or 50 parkruns and/or junior parkruns (depending on device) to your current, recent, last or saved locations stored on your watch or cycle computer. If your device is capable of showing maps, you can select a parkrun and view the parkrun course on a map.</p><p></p><p>Please see the list of limitations and notes at the end (click more below)</p><p></p><p>The widget allows you to see parkruns listed by road distance or as the crow flies from a specific location. When road distances are used, a driving time estimate is given. This requires internet access to download the data, but once it is downloaded, it is stored on the device for offline access. If your device is capable of displaying maps, you can select an individual parkrun to display the course on a map. Once the course is downloaded, it is also available offline. The courses which are downloaded are highlighted with a * in the menu of parkruns. Once you have viewed a course, it is stored on your watch for future viewing and you can download multiple courses simply by viewing them once. Use the start/select button or tap on touchscreen devices to view the course, and from the preview map, use select or tap again to change to browse mode where you can zoom in or out and move the map. Use the back button to return to preview and again to return to the list of parkruns.</p>

Excellent! Works flawlessly. The fact you can take a quick peek at the course layout on the map is phenomenal and more than I was expecting. Suggestion: I’d like an option to see the distances from current location to each ParkRun in miles (rather than my device setting of km, which I use for workouts), but that’s a tiny niggle. Great work and thanks

This feature exists. Go into settings and you can select km, miles and even furlong! It just defaults to your watch default.

Do not work for International location, I'am in Mexico City and only finds locations arround 1500km and beyond outside my zone.

Sounds like this is working perfectly! The closest parkrun to Mexico City is just outside Houston, Texas about 1500km away. See https://www.parkrun.us/events/#geo=5/25/-102 This app works for any location globally.

This is a brilliant app to find parkruns close to you. Not just your nearest. I’ll be using this for a bit of ‘touristing’ when parkruns get going again

Awesome!, working perfectly on my Fenix 6x Sapphire,and Fenix 5x plus,it uses the last map opened on the watch, so it will display on any third party map installed,including my satellite imagery love it! : -)
