Her personal best time for the marathon is 2:17:45, which Salpeter ran in 2020 and which made her the sixth-fastest female marathon runner in history (currently, she is the 11th), the second-fastest European of all time, and set a new Israeli national record. Salpenter represented Israel at the 2016 Rio Olympics and the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. As of November 2022, she held six Israeli national records, over distances ranging from 3000 metres to the marathon.
