2019 OUTdoor Previews (Age Records)

Here is the first part of my Age Records Preview!

For those not familiar with my method for determining Age Records, here's my rules---
I ignore the grouped Age Records---such as Youth, Junior, and Masters!
My Age Records are determined by one's EXACT birthdate!
One day you're a certain Age, and you can break the Record for that Age!
The very next day, you can break the older Age Record!

I will list my Ages in inverse order, beginning with my "40 & over" Age!
Then the next one will be 39, then 38, and so on down to my "0-17" Age category!
(The oldest and the youngest can be ANY Age up to 17, or ANY Age from 40 on up!!
Every other Age is just for that particular Age!!)
I will also list athletes who might break one of those Age Records!
Anyway, let's get started!!

Age 40, 39, and 38 have NO candidates for Record breaking!!

Age 37
Justin Gatlin has not retired!
So he has a chance to get the 9.97 mark for the 100!
But he has a much easier shot at the 200 mark of 20.56!!
Mary Keitany has a chance at two Records, the Half & Full Marathon!
I don't have an Age 37 Record for the Half, so all she needs to do is finish one!
The Marathon Record is 2:21:29!
A stroll in the park for Queen Mary!
Anna Chicherove ((from July 22nd on) can get the HJ mark of 6-6.25!
Kathryn Mitchell can challenge the JT mark  of  220-9, but she must wait until July 10th!
Jenn Suhr already broke Stacy Dragila's Age 37 Record, Vaulting 15=5/50 recently!
She's about 100% SUHR (Sic!) to do it again!
Sorry, couldn't resist!
LOL

Age 36
Chicherova has until July 21st to get the HJ mark of 6-7!
Olga Saladukha has an easy mark in the TJ--47-6.25--but she needs to wait until June 4th!
