Born in West Germany, his family moved to East Germany in 1960 when they inherited property at Ilmenau. Gauder thus competed for East Germany.[1]

In 1996 Gauder started suffering from a virus infection of his heart. After living with an artificial heart for several months, he received a heart transplant. He subsequently took part in the New York Marathon several times. Being classified as a disabled participant due to his transplant, he was once disqualified for being too fast as there was a minimum time, which he underran.[1]

His recovery from almost dying to returning into a normal life was covered in a documentary shown on German documentary channel Phoenix.[1]

Gauder died while undergoing dialysis on 22 April 2020, aged 65.[2] The cause of death was a heart attack complicated by kidney failure.[3]
