Made a lil gif of the distribution of Olympic gymnasts’ age over time to include in a tweet plugging the article I wrote about adult gymnasts’ success in Rio at Excelle Sports. And I like it, so I’m dumping it here too. Notice how much more spread out it gets toward the right in 2012/2016, and particularly notice Chuso slowly moving away from the pack post-2000. 👑
