Polish participation in European Athletics Championships

Overview

Polish athletes achieved several notable results during the European Athletics Championships in Birmingham, concluding the event with a total of eight medals: six silver and two bronze. While the delegation finished 18th in the medal standings, they secured 7th place in the points classification. PZLA President Sebastian Chmara described the performance as successful, noting that the team was very close to several gold medals.

Silver medalists included Katarzyna Zdziebło in the women’s marathon race walk (setting a Polish record of 3:19:50), Ewa Swoboda in the 100m, Pia Skrzyszowska in the 100m hurdles, Natalia Bukowiecka in the 400m, Klaudia Kazimierska in the 1500m, and Maria Żodzik in the high jump. Ewa Swoboda noted that her individual silver in the 100m, achieved with a time of 11.02 seconds, was a “significant personal milestone” that helped her regain professional confidence.

Bronze medals were earned by Jakub Szymański in the 110m hurdles and the women’s 4x100m relay team, which included Wiktoria Gajosz. Pia Skrzyszowska narrowly missed a gold medal in the 100m hurdles by 0.001 seconds. Following her competition, Skrzyszowska was elected to the European Athletics Athletes’ Commission for the 2026-2030 term to focus on athlete well-being and safety.

Other performances included Dawid Wegner finishing fourth in the men’s javelin throw, the women’s 4x400m relay team finishing sixth following a last-minute injury to Natalia Bukowiecka, and Magdalena Żelazna placing 20th in the half-marathon walk.
