Her first major championship was the 2002 Winter Olympic Games in Salt Lake City, where she participated at the age of 15, being the youngest member of the Hungarian delegation,[2] and also the youngest competitor in short track speed skating.[3] Lajtos ran in two distances, finishing 28th in 500 metres and 19th in the 1,000 metres event.[1]

Among her best results are a silver medal in the 3000 metres relay from the 2011 European Championship[4] and two bronze medals in the same event from 2006 and 2012.[5]
