found this interesting.Not sure if it belongs in this particular sub section but yeah has some application i spose.Just as a side note i looked up world and nz athletic records,some records like the nz 800 m record are over 50 yrs old.Pretty amazing really.

intredasting.Its funny that Bolts 100 m record is nearly 10 yrs old too,gee time flies.Would it be fair to say that athletes from the late 80s who lived behind the iron curtain werent as stringently drug tested?

Drugs help.

Peter Snell who set the NZ 800m record back in the early 1960s wasnt on anything.They just ran huge distances and over hills.
