  • The Russian Marija Konovalova , originally fifth, was suspended for two years due to irregularities in her biological passport. In addition, she was stripped of numerous results, including her placement at the 2010 European Championships.
  • Meryem Erdoğan , who initially came in seventh place , was banned for two years in 2012 due to deviations in her blood passport. Among other things, her results from the 2010 European Championships over 5000 and 10,000 meters were canceled.
  • The Russian Jelisaveta Grechischnikowa was initially in ninth place. Due to irregularities in her Biological Passport, all of her results from 2009 to 2013 were canceled.
