actually, it wouldn't, becuase the nature of the sport has changed so drastically in 
that period of time. Before the profressional era, sprinting was dominated by American 
collegians who typically retired shortly after finishing college (or the next 
Olympics). Now that one can afford to hang around, the age of top sprinters has 
skyrocketed upwards.
