Jan Zelezny was 28 years old when he set the world record for javelin throw on May 25, 1996 with a distance of 98.48 meters.
As of my last update, the British record for the 13-year-old javelin category is 61.46 meters, set by Caroline Champlin in 2010. It's important to verify this information with the latest records from official sources as records may have changed since then.

To throw a javelin, start by picking it up with your dominant hand holding it towards the back end of the shaft. Take a few steps forward to build momentum, then push off with your back leg and transfer your weight onto your front leg as you extend your arm and release the javelin with a whipping motion. It's important to aim for a slight angle upwards to achieve maximum distance.
The current men's world record in the javelin throw is held by Jan Železný from the Czech Republic. He set the record on May 25, 1996, with a throw of 98.48 meters. Železný is considered one of the greatest javelin throwers of all time.
A fair throw in javelin is indicated when the javelin lands within the sector lines on the field. If the javelin lands outside these lines, the throw is considered a foul. The athlete must also stay within the throwing arc during the throw and cannot cross the foul line before the javelin lands to ensure the throw is fair.
The penultimate stride is the last step of your cross steps. It's more powerful and pronounced to allow you to land both feet in quicker succession as you throw. If you're right handed, your penultimate stride would be performed with your left foot. Thus, you would be pushing off of your left foot to land on right foot (your drive leg) and then your left leg once again (your block leg).
Detailed rules differ by state, but here are some general rules. The thrower is forbidden from stepping out of the circle until the official gives him clearance. Some areas allow the thrower to step ON the line as long as he is not OVER the line, but in many areas stepping on the line disqualifies the thrower. The discus must land within the two lines that form the throwing sector. If it lands outside of the line, it is called a scratch-aka it doesn't count. This is another area where the rules change depending on where you are- in some places the throw will count if the disc lands on the line; in other places that throw would be a scratch.
To put it simply, the athlete who throws the javelin the farthest throw wins. If there is a tie, the person whose next best throw went the farthest wins. If still tied after this, then compare the third-best distance of the tied athletes and the athlete with the greatest third-best distance is awarded the higher place.
