Mud, Sweat and Bears is mostly about the author, Harriet Gaywood’s, ultra racing experience in 2024. Before you think the book is going to be about conquering a hundred-miler or any other single race distance, I’ll let you know that Harriet’s 2024 race season had 1850k of official race kilometers with many races of 100k or more. Harriet races all over Asia, and shares her experience as well as the things she learned along the way about:

·      Kit essentials

·      Nutrition

·      Training

Harriet Gaywood was born and educated in the UK but has been living and working in Asia for nearly 30 years. She took up trail-running in her 40’s and as we’ll hear, has run many trail ultra-marathons around Asia. Her 2024 racing year has let her qualify for the 2025 UTMB and she has also recently decided to start her own business so she can spend more time in the trails.
