Hopefully some interesting bits of information extracted from science and non-fiction literature. (For historical reasons there are some poems scattered throughout this blog.) Sachthemen und Sachtexte. (Historisch finden sich auf diesem Blog auch einige Gedichte und Aphorismen.) [Just collecting some exciting bits of information here.] [Eine Sammlung von interessanten Texten, Fragen und Antworten will das hier sein. Nicht mehr, aber auch nicht weniger.]

100, 200, 400, 800, 1500(men): The athlete's age at breaking the world record:
18: The first 100 m IAAF world record was set by an 18 year old.
19: The first 1500 m IAAF world record was set by a 19 year old.
30: Carl Lewis broke the 100m world record at the age of 30.
31: Michael Johnson broke the 400m world record at the age of 31.
I did not count athletes who equaled a record.
