README

A library to scrape parkrun data as there is no public API available. This library and API is specifically designed to be responsible with its polling and scraping and has caching and rate limiting to not exceed a realistic number of requests that a single user might make in a browser.

It is designed to automate small pulls of data that you might realistically do manually for things like run reports or club statistics. It is NOT for pulling large amounts of data or abusing the parkrun website.

This library may be counter-intuitive as it is open to abuse of the parkrun website, but it is in fact to do the opposite and provide an API to the data that is responsible and fair in its usage.
