Sports With Most Athletes With At Least Six Olympic Appearances [ edit ]
Here are the various disciplines with athletes who have made at least six Olympic appearances. As this is a count by sport, dual-sport athletes are counted as fractions. For example, in his first Olympics, Michael Dixon competed in Cross-Country Skiing, and then switched to the Biathlon for his next five Olympics. He is attributed a count of 1 ⁄6 to Cross-Country Skiing and 5 ⁄6 to Biathlon.
The information here is compiled from the previous table, with names appearing in the same order.
