"Vielleicht zeigt der Trend zum Extrem im Breitensport letztlich, dass auch wir Normalos nicht nur für ein behagliches, vernünftiges, körperlich passives Leben gemacht sind, ja dass uns dieses in die Verzweiflung treibt. ... Immer, wenn ich bei einem Ultra starte oder einen mitverfolge, denke ich an eine Stelle aus Charlotte Brontës Roman „Jane Eyre“ – der deutschen Übersetzung gebricht es am schön knochigen Pathos des Originals, deshalb auf Englisch: „It is in vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquility. They must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.“"

The Finisher is a documentary about ultra-runner Jasmin Paris completing the Barkley Marathons last year. It's inspirational and mind-blowing that someone can push themselves so hard.
Resharing now as was discussing Sarah Cox's Children in Need challenge with a neighbour on the school run and looked up the link for them. Jasmin Paris lives nearby, in #Midlothian.

Some images from The Peak District Ultra which me and Henry Batten ran a couple of weeks ago in memory of my daughter and Henrys partner, Megan. We raised money for Bipolar UK and C.A.L.M with great family support around the route. Emotional, but a great day #MuddyMilesForMegs #ultrarunning #ultramarathon #bipolar #bipolarawareness #running #runningpunk #veganrunner #CALM
