execution
The entire competition took place on one day, September 17, 1938.
Preliminary round
September 17, 1938
The preliminary division was not particularly successful. There was a race with five participants, two with four, two with three, one run took place with only two runners who, due to the rules, only had to finish in order to reach the next lap. A better distribution of the sprinters on the preliminary runs would have been possible and fairer. A possible explanation would be short-term cancellations.
The preliminary round was carried out in six runs. The first two athletes of each run qualified for the semi-finals - highlighted in light blue.

References and comments
- ↑ After the annexation of Austria by Germany at the time of these European championships, the German flag from that time must be used as a symbol. For a limited period of time, the Republic of Austria did not exist and was part of the German Empire. In Vienna itself, the corresponding flag was waved everywhere, and it is now being used here - even if, as in all other cases, with a certain degree of discomfort.
