Olympic Games edit

 
Polish team after winning the bronze medal at the Vancouver Winter Olympics.

At the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, she was a reserve when the Poland team won a bronze medal in the women's team pursuit. Czerwonka did not receive a medal because she did not participate in any heat, unlike Katarzyna Woźniak, Luiza Złotkowska and Katarzyna Bachleda-Curuś. At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, she won a silver medal with the same team as four years earlier with the same squad.
