Note on the times
At these European Championships, the times were officially given, as was customary in the past, in values rounded to tenths of a second. However, it is based on the electronic measurements, the exact hundredths of which are known and listed in the results lists of the sources. When it comes to the distances from the middle distances upwards, the differences to the values officially rounded to tenths of a second do not often play the decisive role as they do on the sprint courses . Therefore, only the exact times are listed in the following summary of results.
