		Black was overlooked for the individual 400m at the upcoming European Championships in Budapest, after finishing fourth in the recent team trials.
		Despite serious stress fracture that caused him to miss the 1988 Olympics (Black needed a screw inserted into his foot, and was on crutches for six months after the operation), he stormed back to take golds in the European Championships of 1990 in the 400 and the relay.

	EAA - De Nard in double digits
		Gabriele De Nard is assured of plenty of home support at the 2006 SPAR European Cross Country Championships in San Giorgio su Legnano, which return to being staged in Italy on December 10 after a gap of eight years.
		It's a wonderful competition, and what's more, it's one of the few major competitions where Europeans can still show their worth and not have to be overshadowed by hordes of Africans.
		De Nard runs cross country all through the winter, right the way through to March and while his personal best times on the track are nothing special compared to many of his rivals, with 13:34.19 and 28:58.51 to his name over 5,000m and 10,000m respectively, he seems to find another gear on cross country courses.

	EAA - Tomas Janku: hitting the heights, diving to the depths
		Few athletics pundits had Czech high jumper Tomas Janku down for a medal before the European Athletics Championships.
		After all, Janku's one previous medal in a major senior international competition was a bronze at the European Athletics Indoor Championships eight years ago in 1998 and his only other significant honour before then was another bronze which he won at the 1993 European Athletics Junior Championships.
		His modesty is perhaps a reflection of the fact that he had not come close to making the podium in trips to two Olympic Games, two World Championships and the last two European Athletics Championships.

		Medulin, close to the Adriatic resort of Pula in the Istria region of Croatia is in athletics terms at least a relatively unknown quantity, and as such a most appropriate venue for this Sunday’s 9th SPAR European Cross Country Championships (8 December 2002).
		Considering the European AA only introduced Junior races to these Championships in 1997 (as a small experiment), they can count the presence of these names as a strong indication that the policy is working.
		That said, Farah (who won the European Juniors 5000m title in 2001) is determined to not only improve by one place but also to lead his team’s defence of the team title, which was won last year with 54 points, from Portugal (67) and France (68).

		So it is little wonder that the championship holds a special place in his heart, as he says: "I have not missed one.
		Lebid is recognised mainly for his cross country exploits, although he did finish seventh in the 5000m at the Sydney Olympics, and took the bronze at the European Championships in Munich last summer.
		He won the 5000m at the national championships in 1995, '96, '99, 2000 and '01, as well the World Student Games over the same distance in 1999, while he has also been Ukraine's 1500m champion (in 1998) which perhaps explains where his exceptional finishing kick comes from.

	European Championships: Medals for bravery under fire
		BRITISH athletics enjoyed a fabulous 15 minutes in the Nep Stadium last night when Iwan Thomas blew away the best of Europe's 400 metres runners to win gold and Dougie Walker fought back the pain to lead Doug Turner and Julian Golding to a clean sweep in the 200m.
		There were medals won at the European Indoor Championships, in Valencia, earlier this year but the pride felt at British performances there was nothing compared with the fervour whipped up by the rash of medals which came in such a short time in this famous old stadium.
		Thomas's run off the final bend was too much for even Mark Richardson while Walker's surge in the last 60m of the 200m to bring him victory in 20.53sec made a mockery of the pain from a displaced right kneecap.
