Note:
The previous practice of not keeping records in marathon running and street walking because of the different track conditions with the exception of championship records has not been used since 2003. Since then there have also been official records in these road competitions.
The existing EM record was not set at these European championships and was not improved.
doping
For the Russian Olga Kaniskina , who was originally the first to arrive , all results between August 5, 2009 and October 15, 2012 were canceled for doping abuse following a ruling by the International Court of Justice in March 2016.
Here, too, the doping fraud was not without consequences for other participants. Two athletes in particular were affected:
- Anisja Kirdjapkina only received her gold medal after the European Championships had long since ended.
- Bronze medalist Melanie Seeger also had to wait a long time for her medal. She could not take part in the award ceremony, and she lost funding and sponsorship money.
execution
There was no preliminary round, all 22 walkers went to the final together.
