History-making ultra-runner Jasmin Paris will be made a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) by the Prince of Wales.
The 40-year-old Scot, from Gorebridge in Midlothian, has completed some of the toughest and most gruelling races around the world.
In March this year, the veterinary lecturer made history by becoming the first woman to complete the 100-mile Barkley Marathons in Tennessee.
She made it across the finish line with 99 seconds to spare before the 60-hour cut-off.

Dr Paris won the British Fell Running Championships in 2015 and again in 2018.
She had previously held the record in the Bob Graham Round, a fell running challenge in the Lake District, and the Ramsay Round near Fort William.
Outside of running, Dr Paris is a senior lecturer in small animal medicine at the University of Edinburgh and a mother of two.
She is among 57 people due to be recognised by William during Wednesday’s Windsor Castle investiture.
Former prime minister of New Zealand Jacinda Ardern will receive her damehood, as will ex-sports minister Tracey Crouch.

Dame Tracey led a review of football governance in the wake of proposals for a breakaway European Super League.
The Prince of Wales’ former chief aide, Jean-Christophe Gray, will be made a Lieutenant of the Royal Victorian Order (LVO).
He joined William in 2021 – the year after Megxit – and was in situ during the launch of the prince’s Homewards project to tackle homelessness and his transition to heir to the throne after Queen Elizabeth II’s death.
His departure from Kensington Palace earlier this year came following news the Waleses were planning to restructure their household with a new chief executive.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.

We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.
