Jasmin Paris first woman to complete gruelling Barkley Marathons race
Quick Glance: Jasmin Paris Wins Barkley Marathon
  • Jasmin Paris became the first woman to complete the extreme Barkley Marathons, which requires runners to navigate 100 miles of rugged terrain in Tennessee in under 60 hours.

  • Paris finished the race with one minute and 39 seconds to spare, making her one of only 20 people to complete the Barkley since it was extended to 100 miles in 1989.

  • The final minutes of the race were intense, and Paris collapsed exhausted in front of a yellow gate marking the start and finish of the event.

  • With cuts and scratches on her legs, Paris reached the race's end, giving it her all to get there before collapsing in exhaustion.
