Henriette Jæger 400m athletics season

Overview

Norwegian athlete Henriette Jæger has achieved significant success in the 400-meter sprint during the 2026 season.

At the European Athletics Championships in Birmingham, Jæger won the gold medal and set a new Norwegian record with a time of 49.04 seconds. This victory followed a period where she faced criticism after the European Broadcasting Union omitted her from its ‘featured athletes’ list, an oversight described by commentators as a ‘little organizer scandal.’

Jæger continued her momentum at the Ultimate Championship, where she secured a silver medal in the 400 meters with a time of 49.29, finishing behind Marileidy Paulino. Additionally, Jæger anchored the Norwegian mixed 4x400 meter relay team to a fifth-place finish.
