The Athlete feat (PHB, p. 165) has a point that says:
climbing doesn't halve your speed.
The Centaur's Equine Build trait (GGtR, p. 16) says:
any climb that uses both hands and feet is especially difficult for you because of your equine legs. When you make such a climb, each foot of movement costs you 4 extra feet, instead of the normal 1 extra foot.
The normal climb normally costs half your speed and athlete negates that, but the equine build costs you 80% of your speed instead of 50%. How would these two interact with each other?
This question has nothing to do with the difference between listed climb speed and walking speed.

As of the 2018 Errata, the Athlete feat has been changed
Athlete (p. 165). The third benefit should instead say climbing doesn't cost you extra movement.
—Errata: Player's Handbook, 2018
Because of this change, the Athlete feat would allow a Centaur to ignore all extra costs associated with climbing. The technicality of ignoring "halved" movement speed is no longer relevant.
