Donetsk 2013-IAAF Statistics Handbook available to download, from IAAF

One of the coolest things that the IAAF does are these amazing statistic handbooks for those lucky enough to journey to the events or who are writing about the events. For the past several years, the IAAF has offered a download of the books. My suggestion-download them, if you are track fan, as they come in handy (I keep all the pdfs in my apple cloud account and drop box as back up).

Well written, chock full of information and minutia that a real track fan or a soon to be converted track geek (like a parent, uncle, aunt of young athlete) will love, the World Youth Handbook will show you why President Lamine Diack believes that the World Youth Championships is one of the most important ventures of the IAAF.
