What do records being broken have to do with evolution? It's not progress, human arn't evolving better physically it's just a combination of better diet and training methods plus the factor of time.
Look at this way, even if there was no improvements whatsoever to the human body over time records would improve anyway.
Consider dice rolling. No way to evolve better rolls of a dice but if you roll dice for a 100 years trying to get the most consecutive 6's in a row, I can pretty much guarantee the longer you keep doing it the more the consecutive records will increase.
Besides the Olympics represents 0.0000000000000000000001% of the population.
Why not take a look at the other 99.99999999999999999999% in America and the rest of the Western World and tell me if they are in better shape than their ancestors 100 years ago![]()
