Jasmin Paris is the first female runner to complete one of the world's toughest annual races - The Barkley Marathon.
Taking place at 'Frozen Head State Park' in Tennessee, USA, the incredible 100-mile race involves five loops of 20 miles, with 60,000 ft of ascents and descents - which is double the height of Mount Everest from sea level.
Pushing through brambles, and other forest obstacles Jasmin was 1 of only 20 people to complete the race, which started with the blow of a conch shell and the light of a cigarette...
With 99 seconds to spare from the 60hr cut-off... she did it. And now she's on RunPod to tell the tale...
