Visit parkrun
Go to parkrun and log in.
On your results page, click Save this parkrunner — or, from your parkrun profile page, click Save to 5kViz. Either one saves you to the extension.
Click the 5kVIZ icon in your browser toolbar (in Firefox on Android, it's under Extensions in the menu; in Safari on iPhone and iPad, it's in the extensions menu in the address bar) and pick your name from the list.
Click View charts and you're in.
Try it on an event, too
5kVIZ isn't just for your own results. Open any event's results page and click View event stats for a breakdown of that morning — podiums for every age group, finish time distributions and the personal bests set.
On an event's history page, click View event history to see every running of that event: course records falling, attendance climbing, and who has led the field most often.
Neither needs an account or a saved parkrunner. They work the moment you install.
