German rower Ina Justh was a crew member of the eights at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, finishing eighth. She started her rowing career in the former GDR and won the gold medal at the 1989 World Championships with the coxless fours and the bronze medal with the coxless pairs the following year. In both years she also won national titles with those boats.
At the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, Justh was scheduled to row in the heats but suffered an appendicitis shortly after the opening ceremony, and was rushed to hospital and was forced to miss the Games. She was replaced by Dana Pyritz and the crew went on to win the bronze medal. In 1992 and 1996, Justh added two more national titles in reunified Germany with the eights. She also won the coxless fours title in 1993.
