| The photo above shows Dietar Baumann crossing the line behind Spain's
Jose Manual Martinez to win the 10,000m silver medal at the 2002
European Athletics Championships. This was a full 14 years after
Dieter's first championship medal at the Seoul Olympics and was a
remarkable achievement given the fact that he was, by now, 37 years of
age. |
