The men's 100-meter race at the 1906 Olympic Intermediate Games in Athens was held on April 27, 1906 in the Panathinaiko Stadium . Two days before there were preliminary and intermediate runs through which the runners qualified for the final. In the heats there were a number of unpunished false starts, which was probably also due to the fact that the runners were not familiar with the Greek start commands.
