Fung, Lena; Ha, Amy
International Journal of Aging and Human Development, v38 n2 p171-80 1994
Examined official records of VIII World Veterans Championships to identify running, jumping, and throwing events whose performance was most affected by age. Found that 400-meter run and long jump were most affected by advancing age among both male and female master athletes whereas, in areas of throws, event most affected was javelin for men and discus for women.
