JASMIN PARIS SPECIAL - How To Be Superhuman

The Life Lessons Podcast

23-03-2024 • 48 mins

How to juggle family, career and record breaking ultra running, while remaining utterly down to earth, with ultrarunning legend Jasmin Paris.

Jasmin has become the first ever woman to finish the notorious Barkley Marathons race in America, made up of five punishing 20-mile loops around the Frozen Head State Park in Tennessee. Paris’s finishing time was 59 hours, 58 minutes and 21 seconds – 99 seconds inside the 60-hour cut-off.


This isn't her first superhuman rodeo though, in 2019 Jasmin won the 268 mile Spine race, another one of the toughest endurance races in the world. Not only did she become the first woman to win the race outright, she also smashed the men’s course record by a staggering 12 hours (whilst also expressing milk for her then 14 month old daughter!).


Jasmin has mastered the art of prioritising what is important in life, and there is so much anyone can learn from her.


Champion Thinking: How To Find Success Without Losing Yourself is now on general release. Drawing on some of my favourite interviews over the last five years, I want to challenge our ideas about 'success', and where peace, joy and fulfilment are truly to be found.
