Happy birthday today (Friday) to two Olympic champions who competed in a total of eight Olympic Games and won a total of four Olympic gold medals.
These two champions were born a total of 169 years ago today.
One of our birthday people did not compete in the Olympic hurdles.
Both athletes won Olympic gold medals in the same country.
The older person was 59 years old when the younger athlete was born and this older individual won Olympic gold in the same country where the younger champion was born.
You might be interested to know that these two Olympians were born approximately 5,365 miles (8,635 kms) from each other.
Interesting to note that the older person tied a world record and then broke that world record the year after winning the Olympic gold medal.
Did I tell you that one of our birthday people competed in five Olympic Games?
Only one of our birthday athletes is still alive today while the other died at the age of 82.
Now is your chance to name these two Olympic champions on this third Friday of November.
Please remember that no research is allowed, however I do wish you a lot of good luck.
