Catalina's Paralympic games career has spanned four games and 16 years. Her first games came in 1992 Summer Paralympics in Barcelona where she competed in the discus, shot and javelin. She was to repeat these events again in 1996 Summer Paralympics this time winning silver in shot put and bronze in discus. These would prove to be her only Paralympic medals as despite competing in all three throws in 2004 and the discus and shot in 2008, she failed to add to her medal tally.[1]
