Date: August 9, 8:45 p.m.
Fifty meters from the finish, the Russian Vladislav Frolov looked like the sure winner. But Marc Raquil had significantly better stamina on the home straight, so that he was able to pass the Russians shortly before the finish. The 400-meter run was the first decision at the 2006 European Championships, in which not a single participant in the 2002 finals made it to the 2006 finals .

8th | Michael Rimmer | GBR | 1: 47.66 |
Date: August 13, 3:10 p.m.

Date: August 13, 4:40 p.m.
There was no runner in the finals who was in the final in 2002 . As in all running decisions for the men from 800 meters upwards, there was also a sprint decision in the last race before the season finale after a cautious initial pace. In contrast to the other races, one of the favored Spaniards won after co-favorite Alistair Ian Cragg from Ireland was injured.

The German 10,000 meter runner Jan Fitschen surprisingly became European champion and relegated the favored Spaniards José Manuel Martínez and Juan Carlos de la Ossa to second and third place. The Swiss Christian Belz took fourth place. Fitschen even surpassed Dieter Baumann, who finished second on this long distance at the last European Championships in Munich in 2002 and in Budapest in 1998 .

A group of four emerged from a tightening of pace after thirty kilometers, consisting of the Italians Stefano Baldini and Francesco Ingargiolo as well as the Swiss Viktor Röthlin and the Spaniard Julio Rey. The defending champion, the Finn Janne Holmén, could not follow either. Ingargiolo and Rey were also left behind up to kilometer 35, and the Dutchman Luc Krotwaar caught up with them from behind. Baldini and Röthlin stayed together up to forty kilometers, the Swiss could no longer follow an increase in pace by the Italian. For the bronze medal there was a duel between Rey and Krotwaar, which the Spaniard won.

At the first European championships in 1934 , the Latvian walker Jānis Daliņš became European champion. The Olijars gold medal was the second gold for Latvia at European championships after 72 years. Olijars also succeeded four-time European champion Colin Jackson through his victory . The final was held with a headwind of 1.0 m / s. For the only 21-year-old German Jens Werrmann, the entry into the final was already a success after he had run his personal best with 13.60 s in the run-up and had been able to repeat the same time in the semifinals.

8th | Alexandr Derevyagin | RUS | 50.31 |
Date: August 9th, 8:10 pm
The result of the final showed no surprises, Periklis Iakovákis had set the best time in advance, Marek Plawgo and Naman Keïta were among the favorites because of their experience, Rhys Williams had a fast best time from the Commonwealth Games. The course of the race, however, was quite a surprise, as Williams was still well behind after the last hurdle. Nevertheless, he was able to just overtake Keïta, who was experienced both as a hurdler and as a relay runner, in the run-out.

8th | César Pérez | ESP | 8: 30.40 |
Date: August 11th, 7:25 pm
The European record holder Simon Vroemen did not make the final because of an upset stomach. The Spaniards around the defending champion Antonio David Jiménez slowed down the pace to defeat the supposedly fastest in the field, the Frenchman Bouabdellah Tahri, in a sprint. As in the 10,000 meter run , this tactic led to an outsider with great sprint force becoming the European champion. Jukka Keskisalo is the first Finnish European champion in this discipline. Presumably the two-time Finnish Olympic champion Volmari Iso-Hollo would have won the obstacle course at the first European championships in 1934 , but the obstacle course was only included in the program at the second European championships in 1938 . Iso-Hollo's big days were over.

Leslie Djhone and Naman Keïta were already part of the 2002 French relay that won bronze. Marc Raquil was subsequently declared World Champion 2003 with the other two . Raquil and Djhone won individual medals in the 400-meter run in Gothenburg . Given this starting point, the biggest surprise was that the win for the French was relatively close. Raquil fought a thrilling duel with the Pole Rafał Wieruszewski for almost the entire final lap before he could break away on the home straight. Shortly before the finish line, Timothy Benjamin passed the Pole. His compatriot Piotr Rysiukiewicz was already in the season finals of the European Championships for the fourth time. After silver in 1998 he was able to win his second medal.

The defending champion Francisco Javier Fernández pulled away from the rest of the field early on and marched confidently to another win. The chasing group consisted only of the three Russians for a long time, but the Portuguese João Vieira was able to catch up with this group and won bronze with a new national record.

The Norwegian Trond Nymark set a fast pace and the field split up quickly. Nymark was in the lead until a few kilometers from the finish, but was then overtaken one after the other by the medal winners. With his victory, Yohann Diniz secured the first ever gold medal for a French walker.

The Olympic champion Stefan Holm was clearly favored in front of the home crowd. In an exciting final, however, the young Andrei Silnow had the best form of the day and mastered every height in the first attempt. The real surprise was the silver medal for the experienced Tomáš Janků, the amount of which was not to be expected. The two Swedes only finished third and fourth.

Date: August 13, 1:45 p.m.
Twenty jumpers took part in the final after the qualification was canceled due to rain. It also rained in the final and the great heights were therefore not reached. The Israeli Alexander Awerbuch was able to successfully defend his title from Munich in 2002 . Tim Lobinger won his third medal at the European Championships after silver in 1998 and bronze in 2002. From a German point of view, it was disappointing that the reigning German champion Lars Börgeling broke the bar three times in the final at his starting height of 5.5 m. He thus produced a so-called Salto Nullo and retired early as a seemingly promising medal candidate.

Andrew Howe had been favored even before the European Championships and won the qualification convincingly with 8.33 m. In the final, he didn't have to use all his skills to win over young Briton Greg Rutherford. The defending champion Olexij Lukaschewytsch won the bronze medal. Only these three jumpers could surpass the eight-meter mark. In Munich 2002 only two jumpers managed to do this. The two German participants Sebastian Bayer (7.66 m) and Daniel Koenig (7.36 m) were eliminated in the qualification.

Date: August 12, 3:50 p.m.
The defending champion Christian Olsson was clearly superior to his competitors. He jumped the distance to victory in the second attempt. His jumps after that were all overstepped. In particular, his third attempt would have been even better than the winning distance. Olsson won the third gold medal for the host country Sweden at these European championships.

The silver medal went to the Dane Joachim Olsen with a width of 21.09 m. Bronze went to Rutger Smith from the Netherlands. The second German athlete Andy Dittmar finished fifth after the doping disqualification of the Belarusian Andrej Michnewitsch with 19.95 m.
The Ukrainian Jurij Bilonoh was initially sixth. He was later disqualified because of doping.
Due to repeated doping offenses, all of Andrei Michnewitsch's results - here a second place - have been canceled since August 2005.

After the competition was postponed by one day due to rain showers and the resulting delays in the decathlon, it began to rain again right on time at the beginning of the finals. This increased the number of failed attempts in this final. In 2014, Iwan Zichan , who had already been convicted of doping several times, was subsequently disqualified for another doping offense.

1985 scores
The world record holder and Olympic champion Roman Šebrle was able to defend his title from 2002 successfully and largely safely. Behind him, the experienced Hungarian Attila Zsivóczky came in second in an exciting battle for medals, mainly because Alexander Pogorelow once again destroyed all the chances in the 1,500 meter run that he had previously laboriously built up. Of the three German participants, the youngest, Pascal Behrenbruch, turned out to be the (nerve) strongest; In the final 1500 meter run, however, he stayed 22 seconds above his best time and thus missed the medal chance. So he had to wait six years before winning the title at the 2012 European Championships . The entire competition was interrupted several times due to heavy rain showers, which significantly affected the results in the jumping disciplines.
