Short track speed skating is a form of competitiveice speed skating. In competitions, multiple skaters (typically between four and six) skate on an oval ice track with a circumference of 111.12 m. The rink itself is 60 m by 30 m, which is the same size as an international-sized ice hokcey ring.Short track speed skating originated in the speed skating events held with mass starts. This form of speed skating was mainly practiced in the United States and Canada, as opposed to the international form, where skaters skated in pairs. At the Winter Olympics speed skating events were conducted in the mass start form. Competitions in North America were also held indoors, for example in Madison Sqare.Garden.New Yeork, and therefore on shorter tracks than usual for outdoor skating.In 1967, the ISU adopted short track speed skating, although it did not organize international competitions until 1976.the event is now held annually as the World Short Track Speed Skating Championships.
