World: WR = Global, Wu20R = Junior, Wu18R = Youth
Area: AR = Specific region, Au20R = Junior, Au18R = Youth
National: NR = Specific country, Nu23R = under-23, Nu20R = Junior, Nu18R =Youth
Age: there will be instances where an athlete’s performance is the best-ever for their age, and some statisticians keep that data
Personal Bests: I’ve decided to research athletes’ improvement, so look out for “PPB” = previous Personal Best
