Oh, I forgot to explain: the times are concentrated in thin, horizontally separated strands because the yearly athletics indoor season only lasts from January to March. If the competitions would be held throughout the year one would see a much more uniform cloud.

If the athletic season is only from January to March, you don't need to include April to December at all. Though that would mean a different type of chart...

There are a couple of exceptions: for some reason a few competitions were held much later in the year in 1990 and 2005 and I didn't want to exclude them. Plus, I liked that by keeping the other months the seasons are automatically easily visually distinguishable.
