Life
Katharina Trost comes from Piding in the Berchtesgadener Land . Her mother Eva (née Coqui) is also a track and field athlete. She finished eighth at the 1986 Junior World Championships over the 800 meters and set new senior world records over both Olympic middle distance distances in 2018. Katharina Trost studies elementary school teaching and lives and trains in Munich .
Athletic career
Trost started athletics at the age of five. At the age of 15, she began to train regularly and eventually focused on middle-distance running. A year later she took part in national U18 championships for the first time and immediately won the silver medal over 800 meters. In 2013 she achieved podium finishes at the German U20 championships both indoors (800 meters) and outdoors (1500 meters). After a new personal 800 meter record of 2: 03.59 minutes and fifth place at the U20 European Championships , she received an NCAA scholarship and studied in the USA for the next two years .
Due to health problems, she was unable to improve her junior performance for the time being. Only after her return to Germany did she make a comeback in 2016 with fourth place in the U23 championships. As a result of a club change, she increased her performance and in 2017 won her first U23 championship title over 1500 meters as well as in the general silver class with the relay . In 2018, she won her first German championship title with the 800 meter relay. At the indoor championships in 2019 , she was also able to win an individual title for the first time over her specialist distance. During the championships in Berlin's Olympic Stadium , the relay title was defended, but Consolation had to admit defeat to her club colleague Christina Hering in the individual . With a new personal best of 2: 00.36 minutes, she met the norm for the World Championships in Doha at the end of August . There she made it into the 800-meter semi-finals as second in her preliminary run, where she was eliminated as the best-placed German.
