The action continues today at the 18th European Athletics Championships.

A golden night awaits in Munich, with nine titles to be decided, including the men's and women's 400m, the women's 400m hurdles, men's 1500m and women's 800m.

The path towards the first gold medal of day three begins just after 8am, with West Waterford's Jamie Costin flying the flag for Ireland in the men's 50km walk.

Paula Radcliffe is on a roll, and seeking to add the 5,000m crown to her newly-won titles at this distance in the Commonwealth Games, and the 10,000m in Munich on Tuesday.

She will be in action alongside Una English and Maria McCambridge tonight.

If not enough competitors show up for the 5,000 semi-finals, a straight final will be run instead.

There is plenty of Irish interest in the 200m heats, with Sarah Reilly, Ciara Sheehy, Paul Brizzel, Paul Hession and Gary Ryan all competing, while Dervla O'Rourke goes in the heats of the women's 100 metres hurdles.
