are there any javelin throwers that started off throwing at much later age than most javelin throwers and still made it as a pro/won big comps?

i havent made it as a pro or anything yet, but i only started throwing last season (aged 17 1/2), havent done any weight training/ conditioning work ever and have just won the senior english schools, I have only just started to get coaching properly at the start of this season
