2012 European Cross Country Championships. She began the outdoor season by running 2:01.09 for 800 m in a BMC event. At the British Olympic trials in June, she finished third, ahead of UK number one Marilyn Okoro. Then in July at the
2012 World Junior Championships, she won a silver medal in the 800 m final in 2:00.96, which is a UK age 17 record. She went on to reach the 1500 m final, finishing fifth and smashing her previous personal best, with a time of 4:09.93 which set another UK age 17 best. On 22 June 2013, Judd won the 800 m at the
European Team Championships. She followed this up with victory at the Birmingham Grand Prix on 30 June 2013, running under two minutes for the first time in her career with 1:59.86. At the 2013 UK World Championship trials, she finished second to Marilyn Okoro, earning selection for the

In March 2017, Judd won the British Inter Counties Ladies' Cross Country Championships held at Loughborough, earning selection for the British team competing in the World Cross Country Championships later that month in Kampala. On 5 April that year, Judd ran 8:52.16 for 3000 m in
Watford, to become only the fourth British woman to have broken two minutes for 800 m and nine minutes for 3000 m, after
Christina Boxer,
Kirsty Wade and
Hannah England. A month later, again in Watford, she improved her 1500 m best to 4:05.20. Later that year, she finished second in the 1500 m at the
British Athletics Championships, ensuring her qualification for the
2017 World Athletics Championships where she reached the semi-final of the 1500 m, having run a personal best in the heats. In 2020, she became
British champion when winning the
5000 metres event at the
British Athletics Championships with a time of 15:37.52. She retained her title in 2021, a year in which she also
qualified for her first Olympic Games over both the 5000 m and 10,000 m. At the delayed
2020 Tokyo Olympics, Warner-Judd did not qualify from the heats in the former (15:09.47) and finished 17th at the latter (31:56.80). ==Statistics==
