This was not only a new women's record, but an overall fastest known time for the route. Paris ran the Ramsay Round on 18 June 2016 in a time of 16:13. The record stood until July 2020 when Beth Pascall ran the Bob Graham Round in 14:34. On 23 April 2016, Paris completed the Bob Graham Round in a time of 15:24, taking more than two-and-a-half hours off the women's record previously held by Nicky Spinks. In April that year, she set a new women's record of 11:09 in the Fellsman, finishing fourth overall, and in June, she was the first female finisher and second overall in the five-day Dragon's Back Race in Wales. In 2015, Paris began to be more prominent in ultra distance running. Paris won the Scottish Hill Running Championships in 20 and in 20 she won the British Fell Running Championships. Her wins include Wasdale, the Three Peaks Race, Borrowdale, the Langdale Horseshoe, the Isle of Jura and the Ennerdale Horseshoe and she has won the Lakeland Classics Trophy series. She has performed particularly well in the longer fell races. After a twelve-month sabbatical in Minnesota, she returned to the UK, moved to Edinburgh in 2010 and began to take running more seriously. However, she did not start running until she left university in 2008 and was working in Glossop near her home town of Hadfield in Derbyshire, although she had done some backpacking and walked a lot in the fells. While at the University of Liverpool, Paris was a member of the Open Air Club which encouraged outdoor pursuits. She is the daughter of mathematicians Jeff Paris and Alena Vencovská. She received significant media attention for her overall win in the 2019 Spine Race. She is well known in Great Britain as a fell runner, but became known on the international stage as a sky runner after her victory in the 2016 Skyrunner World Series (Sky Extreme) and bronze medal at the 2016 Skyrunning World Championships (Sky Ultra). Jasmin Karina Paris (born November 1983 ) is a British runner who has been a national fell running champion and who has set records for the Bob Graham Round and the Ramsay Round.
