Simon Vroemen /Steeple. He didn't get world age record, though. Q: what are the age 33,34,35 records, in this most grueling of events?(if birthdates are to be believed. Which we'll never know for sure?..)

So now you're accusing Kenyan runners of being OLDER than they claim ? That's a new one for me :-)

Actually, a few years back James Munyala actually set a World Junior Record and a World Masters Record in the same race!

Yeah, the older guys' birthdates are reliable, probably. It's more the 15-18y-olds you wonder about. But I do wonder if the age 35 mark is right - I saw it listed, but also saw it on Athletics Annual list as Antonio Jimenez, born /77. If that's correct, age-35 record would be Ellarbi Khattabi's 8:20.6l('02 Monaco)??

You're right, it was actually Antonio Jimenez.
