Periklís Iakovákis had many injury problems this year but even thougu he managed to be the first European athlete in the final and prooved that he is the top European athlete in 400m. hurdles! He was 5th with 48.42(SB) after Kerron Clement, Javier Culson, Bershawn Jackson, and Jehue Gordon.
In javelin, the 39 year old(!!) Sávva Líka was 8th with 60.29m.! Very good place and mark for one of the most respectfull Greek athletes! Gold medal for Steffi Nerius from Germany!
We pray for a medal...
