Florian Bremm ran to European silver in the men's 5000m at the 2026 European Athletics Championships in Birmingham, finishing second behind Jakob Ingebrigtsen (13:15.29) in a race that came down to a home-straight sprint. The German veteran finished ahead of France's Etienne Daguinos and world 10,000m champion Jimmy Gressier — a result he says he genuinely didn't see coming.
