If you missed the news this weekend, 40-year-old Jasmin Paris has become the first female in history to complete the notoriously difficult Barkley Marathon in Tennessee.
The ultramarathon has only seen 20 finishers in total throughout its history, largely because it's 100 miles long and requires contestants to self-navigate a course double Mount Everest's height. Not only that, but the race is predominantly off-road and has a cut-off time of 60 hours - a time Paris managed with just 99 seconds to spare on Friday.
