A big welcome back to the Young Hearts, Run Free podcast. We were thrilled to have the pleasure of catching up with the legend that is Jasmin Paris. She needs little introduction, so we dive right in to find out what brought Jasmin to where she is today, her intro to fell-running and how she found a love for ‘the longer stuff’. Still recovering from her very recent outing at the 2023 Barkley Marathons we’re able to grill Jasmin on her 2nd experience over in Tennessee and just what it took for her to finish 4 loops of the daunting 20-mile (in Laz miles)) course. Whether you’re a Barkley newbie or seasoned Barkley fanatic it makes for compulsive listening! We also chat plenty about Jasmin’s iconic Spine Race course-record as she regales how she found her love for wild places and how she unearthed a world-class knack of moving effectively over tricky terrain. There’s simply no doubting that last statement. Passionate about her role within The Green Runners, a movement she is proud to have co-founded, Jasmin enlightens us all in ways we can contribute to reducing our footprint, as their moto puts it ‘You don’t need to be perfect, just keep improving by putting the planet first when making decisions’. It was a privilege to speak to Jasmin and we can’t wait for you to get your lugs around this. ‘Messieurs, wiz zese bonus episodes you are really spoiling us…..’ Find out more and sign up to a pledge on THE GREEN RUNNERS
