Career
Born in Dniprodzerzhynsk, Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, she had a very brief period of success in sprinting. This was the slowest winning recorded at the competition after the introduction of fully automatic timing equipment. This ranked her as the 13th fastest in the world for the discipline that year.
German"s sole appearance at a major athletics competition came at the 1987 World Championships in Athletics.
She did not perform well individually, being eliminated in the first round as the fastest non-qualifier. Success awaited her in the relay, however, as she ran the curve leg in a Soviet women"s team including Irina Slyusar, Natalya Pomoshchnikova, and Olga Antonova.
The team ended up a clear third place behind the American and East German women.
