She Refused to Quit: A 100-Mile Ultra Race Story | Tarawera Ultra-Trail by UTMB 2025



Despite missing the cut off, the Tarawera community waited more than 30 minutes to bring Lynda, the legend, home.

Grit, determination, courage, a sprinkle of craziness and immense support from the community around you is the recipe that you need to complete the 160km TMiler. #trailsfullofheart

  1. insane, isnt there medical supervision to take her off the race and stop her harming herself

  2. Where do we draw the line at stupidity? Science must tell us this on physiology. If your back is rounded like hers is, this is the point of stupidity.

  3. She dont even run. She is good and strong but are not a runner , if u are good in hiking and can walk/hiking fast part of the course u can made it to the finish 💪🙏 I try that metod once and I finish a 100 miles race without running in whole race Walk/hiking only!

  4. this is what "giving your all " looks like the feeling she must of had was soo good crossing the line and the hours of AMAZING pain afterwards and that sense of tired calmness you get after a shower etc /this feeling for 24 hours afterwards is like a drug and the more you give it the better the feeling its like th ebest councelling session you can get and you find out so much about yourself EVEN IF IT WAS A DNF giving your all is still giving your all
