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.

Quick Glance: McDonald's owner faces profit loss due to California's $20 minimum wage
  • A McDonald's franchisee in Los Angeles stated she would incur profit losses as prices couldn't be raised enough to offset the new wage.

  • California's minimum wage for fast-food workers is increasing to $20 per hour from April 1, 25% higher than the state's current minimum wage.

  • While price hikes may deter some fast-food customers, it is expected to boost wages for staff in other hourly occupations like retail workers.

  • The new bill applies to limited-service restaurant chains with at least 60 restaurants nationally, affecting both corporate-owned and franchised restaurants.
