Judith Havers is an experienced runner and outdoor enthusiast with a passion for long-distance challenges. Originally focused on road races from 10km to marathons, she soon discovered her love for trail and ultra-running, tackling some of the toughest races in the world and making it the centerpiece of her athletic career.
Her impressive accomplishments include multiple finishes at the TransAlpineRun, a legendary 250km race with 15,000m of altitude gain, and a podium finish in her first 100km race in the Sahara Desert, which she won in 2020.
Judith thrives on self-organized projects and chasing Fastest Known Times (FKTs) on long-distance trails. She completed a 220km trail run nonstop in 40 hours and led a team through ten marathons in ten days across Sweden. She’s also no stranger to winning Obstacle Course Races.
Her most extreme adventure was completing the 500km Montane Lapland Arctic Ultra, where she pulled all her supplies on a sled through sub-zero temperatures and breathtaking landscapes. Additionally, she conquered the CrossingSwitzerland challenge, covering 395 kilometers with 30,000 meters of elevation gain.
When not competing abroad, Judith calls Hamburg, Germany, her home. While the city’s flat terrain is less than ideal for mountain training, she takes every opportunity to explore new countries and cultures, often planning her travels around races.
Fueled by an insatiable appetite for endurance challenges, Judith not only pushes her own limits but also inspires others to embark on their adventures through her work as a passionate sports writer and marketing consultant.
