The Finisher: Jasmin Paris and the Barkley Marathons (Full Documentary)

In 2024, Jasmin Paris made history by becoming the first woman to finish the Barkley Marathons, widely known as one of the hardest races in the world and a defining test in ultrarunning and trail running. With over 100 miles of brutal terrain, cryptic course markings, and a near-impossible success rate, the Barkley has long been considered the ultimate challenge in endurance sports. "The Finisher" chronicles Jasmin’s extraordinary three-year journey (2022–2024) to achieve this groundbreaking feat. The film features exclusive interviews with legendary race director Lazarus Lake, ultrarunning icons Courtney Dauwalter, Amelia Boone, and Jared Campbell, as well as rare insights from Jasmin herself. Through never-before-seen footage from her home mountains in Scotland, in-depth analysis of her Barkley race strategy, and a deep dive into her endurance athlete mindset, this documentary reveals the resilience and determination behind one of the greatest achievements in ultrarunning history. Whether you're fascinated by the Barkley Marathons, inspired by women in endurance sports, or eager to witness an incredible story of perseverance, The Finisher is a must-watch.
