Catra Corbett used to be a crystal meth addict until she was arrested for dealing.

After spending a night locked up behind bars, Catra made a decision to change the direction of her life - which included going vegan and giving up drugs and alcohol immediately.

Catra has since gone on to conquer over 260 ultramarathons, 120 of which are 100 milers.

Catra is a collector of tattoos and piercings, and can be spotted a mile away wearing the brightest coloured outfits possible.

Every year Catra celebrates her birthday by running for the same amount of hours, as her age.. and has now been clean and sober for over 17 years.
