Julian Weber (born 29 August 1994) is a German track and field athlete who competes in the javelin throw.
[1] He showed early promise as a thrower, but dropped athletics as a 12-year-old to concentrate on handball, the sport of his elder brother Patrick.
[2] He returned to the javelin four years later, immediately qualifying for the 2011 German youth championships; coached by Stephan Kallenberg, Weber developed rapidly as a thrower, but quit handball only after injuring himself in a game in 2012.
[2][3] Weber broke 80 meters for the first time in 2014 (80.72 m), winning silver behind Thomas Röhler at that year's national championships.
He was selected to represent Germany at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, together with Röhler and Johannes Vetter.
