Lara Matheis (born August 2, 1992 in Lich , Hessen ) is a former German athlete who specialized in sprinting and also ran relays .

career path
Matheis is a sports and fitness clerk . She has been working full-time again since the beginning of October 2018.
Athletic career
Even in the youth classes, Lara Matheis never sprinted onto the podium in the German championships because her training meant that she was not so focused on the sport.
Since 2015 she has been in the finals of the 200-meter run at German championships indoors and outdoors.
In 2017, Matheis won her first championship medal when she became German indoor runner-up over 200 meters in 23.22 seconds . In the run-up Matheis had set a personal best of 23.19 s. In the last 15 indoor championships, these times would have been enough to win the title eleven times. The day before she sprinted over 60 meters in the final in 7.36 s to sixth place and was two hundredths faster in the semifinals with a personal best. In April Matheis won the silver medal with Rebekka Haase , Tatjana Pinto and Gina Lückenkemper at the IAAF World Relays 2017 in the Bahamas in a time of 1: 30.68 minutes in the 4 x 200 meter relay . The season just prevailed against the team from the USA. In Lille , northern France , Matheis was team European champion , to which she contributed by winning the 4 x 100 meter relay . In July she was nominated by the German Athletics Association (DLV) for the World Championships in London for the 100 meter relay.
In 2018, Matheis could not call up her previous level of performance partly due to injuries and decided to end her sporting career for professional reasons.
