General

This Shiny App works best on a laptop/PC although it will render on a tablet/phone

All Box and Whisker plots show the Inter-Quartile Range (Box, 25th to 75th Percentile), Median (Bar in centre of box, 50th percentile), Whiskers extending to 1.5 x IQR or max/min observation, and any outliers beyond the whiskers.

This is a work in progress. Please feel free to report any bugs to me at [email protected]

Any suggestions for additions/updates welcome

IAAF Rankings
