Speed Skating Quick Facts
Speed skating is a great way to have fun, go fast, learn new skills, be competitive, stay in shape, cross-train and meet new people.
Short Track Speed Skating is one of the most innovative and exciting sports since it was introduced at the 1988 Olympics. The skating takes place on a 111 metre oval track where corners are tight and speeds are fast. Skaters race in both sprints and long distances, in groups of four or five as well as pursuits where two skaters race each other but start on opposite sides of the track.
Long Track Speed Skating takes place on a 400 metre track. It has been an Olympic sport since 1924. These are longer races and test your endurance, typically ranging in distance from 400 metres to 5000 metres.
Speed skating is a super sport where you train as a team yet compete individually; it’s you against the clock. So, if you are looking for the ultimate sport to test your abilities, sign up today!
