On Saturday 18th June 2016 Jasmin Paris aided by a carefully selected support team, left Glen Nevis Youth Hostel at 03 00 and headed onto Ramsay’s Round traveling in an anticlockwise direction, she returned to the Youth Hostel 16hours and 13mins later.
Not only had she broken the Ladies record of 19 hours 39mins held by Nicky Spinks of Dark Peak Fell Runners, but she had also broken the Men’s overall record established by Jon Ascroft of Carnethy in July 2015.
Jasmin is only 1 of 4 ladies out of 92 successful finishers that have completed the round within 24 hours.
Carnethy currently has a total of 10 members who also successfully completed the round within the specified time limit.
I hope that Jasmin’s journey will inspire others to start looking at the round and preparing themselves for a sub 24h journey in the not too distant future.
Well done Jasmin and huge congratulations.
I would anticipate that following her recovery Jasmin will compile a short summary report, I’m sure it will prove to be of interest to all.
Watch this space.
