Career

After starting out in athletics, Seidel switched to the short track at the age of nine and competed there as an E-Junior in the 2007/08 season. In the following seasons she achieved several successes, including the German championship title among juniors and third place at the European Cup in March 2013. Participation in the Junior World Championships in February 2013 in Warsaw ended with a 40th place among 67 starters. With these results, the 15-year-old qualified for the Short Track World Cup , in which she was used for the first time in September 2013. First, a 27th place on the 1,500 meter course at the World Cup opener in Shanghai was her best result, until she made it to the semifinals at the same distance in the competitions in Kolomna, Russia , where she benefited from the elimination of her competitors and came second in the run -Finals of the best six reached. This was equivalent to qualifying for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi , which among the German short trackers, apart from Seidel, was only achieved by the 500-meter sprinter Robert Seifert . In the further course of the season, the planning of which was actually geared towards the Junior World Championship, Seidel only played a relay at the European Championship before the Olympics, where she narrowly missed the final together with Julia Riedel , Tina Grassow and Bianca Walter as third in the semi-final.

Seidel was nominated for the German Olympic team by the DOSB in the first round in December 2013 . There, the student of the sports high school in Dresden was the second youngest member behind the nine months younger ski jumper Gianina Ernst . Seidel managed to reach the semi-finals in Sochi, where she improved the national record of her teammate Christin Priebst , but still missed the finals and ultimately finished 17th in the victory of the Chinese defending champion Zhou Yang . At the Short Track World Championships in March 2014, Seidel retired over the 1500 meters and the 500 meters in the lead.

At the World Cup in Nagoya in December 2015 , Anna Seidel achieved second place over 500 meters, the best ever World Cup result for the German short track women. She won the bronze medal over 1000 meters at the 2016 European Short Track Championships on the Olympic track in Sochi. She also won bronze over 1000 meters at the 2016 Winter Youth Olympic Games in Lillehammer .

In June 2016, Seidel suffered a fracture of the twelfth thoracic vertebra while exercising . At the 2017 World Championships in Rotterdam she reached 14th place over the 500 m, 20th place over 1000 m and 23rd place over 1500 m. In the overall ranking she was 17th. At the European Championships 2018 in Dresden, Seidel won the bronze medal over 1000 m. At the European Championships 2020 in Debrecen , she won the bronze medal over 1500 m.
