The European Indoor Championships have been pleasantly surprising. I was expected a fairly dry championships. An enthusiastic crowd, local medals, World leaders, great announcing and a superb indoor facility makes this event stand out. 

My favorite event was the women’s pole vault, but the men’s 60m was right there, as was the 3000m men’s race. 

Here is Alfons Juck’s comments on the day’s events. More from me after I take a nap. 


RESULT OF THE DAY
The 60 m 6.48 by two sprinters, the third fastest in the history of Euroindoors and world leading by Jimmy Vicaut and James Dasaolu. More world leads in jumps Daniele Greco 17.70 in the triple and Darya Klishina 701 in the long jump.

SURPRISE OF THE DAY
Fast times by 400 m hurdles specialists here Shakes-Drayton and Hejnova. Can they attack in summer the world record of Pechonkina.

FAVORITE FALLS
World medalist Olga Kucherenko only 6th in the long jump (662). Olympic medalist Robbie Grabarz only 6th in the high jump (223). Turkish Polat Kemboi Arikan only 10th in the 3000 m final. 

AGENTS BY GOLD MEDALS
2 Pavel Voronkov, 1 Rene Auguin, Alibey Shukurov, Robert Wagner, Daniel Wessfeldt, Jos Hermens, Salih Munir Yaras, Rachid Esmouni, Marcello Magnani, Sergey Shemigon.

OTHER POINTS

THOUSANDS: Men 60 m final 6 thousands. Jimmy Vicaut 6.472 and James Dasaolu 6.478. In the men 800 m in semifinal Ciara Everard 2:03.397 and Lenka Masna 2:03.398.

STATS

LJ: 7.01m by Klishina in Euro Indoor Championships is the longest jump in Sweden. Klishina became the 6th women Long Jumper to win more than one Euro Indoor Championships.  Zero cm difference between 3rd and 4th is the smallest ever in Euro Indoors.

400 m: 51.03 by Perri Shakes-Draywon (GBR) is the fastest semi time at W400m in Euro Indoor.

1500 m: Aregawi’s winning margin was nearly 10 second (actually 9.72sec) is by far the largest winning margin in the history of Euro Indoor Championships. Previous one biggest one was 3.73.

3000 m: Ibrahimov won first gold for AZE at Euro Indoor Championships.

gold and silver.

LJ: 822 by Menkov is the longest jumps in the qualifying round of European Indoor Championships. 

PV: 575 by Otto & Filippidis is the highest vault in the qualifying round of European Indoor Championships.

1500m: 3:39.58 by Ozbilen in the first heat is the second fastest heat time in European Indoor Championships.

ADDITIONS

There are now official European Junior Indoor Records, says European Athletics they will publish the first official list soon. That means the time of Ella Rasanen 52.37 in Goteborg in heats is the first official record. The better time in history 52.32 by Russian Natalya Bochina from European Indoors in Grenoble 1981 could not be ratified as the record for missing background informations.
