A Mathlon is a competition in which there are $M$ athletic events. Such a competition was held in which only $A$, $B$, and $C$ participated. In each event $p_1$ points were awarded for first place, $p_2$ for second and $p_3$ for third, where $p_1 > p_2 > p_3 > 0$ and $p_1$, $p_2$, $p_3$ are integers. The final scores for $A$ was 22, for $B$ was 9 and for $C$ was also 9. $B$ won the 100 metres. What is the value of $M$ and who was second in the high jump?

In an $8 \times 8$ grid, $n$ disks, numbered $1$ to $n$ are stacked, with random order, in a pile in the bottom left comer. The disks can be moved one at a time to a neighbouring cell either to the right or top. The aim to move all the disks to the cell at the top right comer and stack them in the order $1,2,...,n$ from the bottom. Each cell, except the bottom left and top right cell, can have at most one disk at any given time. Find the largest value of $n$ so that the aim can be achieved.
