Athletic career

Early successes

Sina Schielke was elected three-time junior European champion in 1999 and junior athlete of the year . In the following year, the 1.69 m tall sprinter won the junior world championships, for which she waived a possible relay participation at the 2000 Olympic Games, the vice world champion title over 200 meters behind the eventual Olympic champion and world champion Veronica Campbell-Brown . With the relay she won the gold medal and was again junior athlete of the year , this time with the team. In 2001 she achieved her breakthrough among adults at times that were also internationally remarkable (100 meters: 11.24 s, 200 meters: 22.78 s), she won her first German championship title in the hall and took two third places in the German open air Championships and was successful at the U-23 European Championships by winning the title over 100 meters and second place over 200 meters.

Injury misery

In the same year began a nine-year series of injuries that regularly hampered Schielke's career and allowed her only a few races. A torn muscle fiber before the World Championships in Edmonton in 2001 prevented her participation and possible membership in the local gold relay. In 2002, after a moderate indoor season at the DLV meeting in Dortmund, she climbed to her best time of 11.16 seconds, defeating next year's world champion Kelli White . The next muscle fiber tear before the European Championships in Munich did not mean the end of the major event of the season this time, but Schielke only made it to the semi-finals there in the 100 meters, but won silver with the relay behind the French women, their only international medal in the Adult. The year 2003 began with the victory at the German Indoor Championships in the new best time of 7.19 s, but the summer season was spoiled by injuries. When she made her comeback in the summer of 2004, she regained her old level of performance (100 meters: 11.21 s), but before the Olympics she suffered a persistent plantar tendon injury . The result was an elimination in the preliminary run in Athens in the individual and the relay, the subsequent injury break was extended by the rupture of the damaged plantar tendon in June 2005 and only in July 2006 did the athlete return to the career with some modest results.

In the 2007 indoor season, Sina Schielke was on top again and won the German championship, but then retired at the European Indoor Championships in Birmingham with a disappointing 7.38 seconds in advance. Her injury career continued in the open-air season, a remarkable victory over the European record holder Christine Arron in the B run of the European Cup in Munich in 11.21 seconds was followed by the cancellation of the German and the World Championships due to problems with the fascia , and an operation followed in August. A pregnancy meant that she would not participate in the 2008 Olympics, and in July of this year she gave birth to her daughter. Father is the former German hurdler Thomas Goller . For the first time, the sprinter failed to return to an internationally competitive level. Hindered, among other things, by a protracted larynx in preparation, she postponed her debut in the outdoor season 2009 several times in order to have no chance against the national competition in a few races. When Achilles tendon pain reappeared at the end of the year, Sina Schielke ended her sporting career.

Sina Schielke missed all five outdoor athletics world championships of her active career due to injuries. Schielke herself commented on the reason for this misery by stating that it was “done too quickly too early”, which resulted in her later susceptibility to injury.
