What is a userscript?
A userscript is a small piece of JavaScript that runs in your browser and enhances specific websites. These scripts work with parkrun event pages, parkrunner profile pages, and results pages, and can be used with any userscript manager including Userscripts, Tampermonkey, Violentmonkey, or any compatible browser extension.
Installation
-
Install a userscript manager for your browser:
- Desktop: Userscripts (Safari), Tampermonkey (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera), or Violentmonkey (Orion)
- iOS: Userscripts (Safari) or Violentmonkey (Orion)
- Android: Install Kiwi Browser, then install Tampermonkey or Violentmonkey from the Chrome Web Store.
- Click the install link below for this script.
- Click “Install” when prompted by your userscript manager.

Bookmarklet version
You can also use this script as a bookmarklet (a bookmark whose URL is JavaScript), which can be useful on browsers that support bookmarks but not userscript managers.
