Running with his  ULC Linz club, he was a member of their 1980 and 1981 winning 4x100 metres relay team, and their 1980 4x400 metres relay team. He is now part of their hall of fame, still holding club records for high jump, pole vault, javelin throw, pentathlon and decathlon. He switched to the Zehnkampf-Union decathlon club in 1984. Werthner is still active in Masters athletics and has won numerous World Masters Athletics Championships.
