Biography
She was born in the village of Trstín, and since 1933 she has been studying law at the Faculty of Law of Comenius University. During her studies, she joined the athletics department of VŠ Bratislava. The talented and well-physically built athlete went from jumping to discus throwing, where she developed into the best Czechoslovak discus thrower in the second half of the 1930s, as she became a Czechoslovak champion in 1936. After the German occupation of Czechoslovakia, the athlete, who achieved the title of Doctor of Laws, devoted herself to athletics only non-competitively, until the 1943-44 season, because she married in Bratislava, and lived there under the surnames Imhof and Dusba. She died in September 2006.[5]
