WHAT IS SHORT TRACK?
A skating competition, where women and men compete in 500m, 1000m, 1500m and 3000m distances on ICE with a mass start.
There is a 5000m relay for men, and a 3000m relay for women. In each event, skaters must outwit and outskate their fellow competitors in a series of elimination heats until the finalists remain to battle it out. Time is a secondary factor. In fact, Olympic and world records have been set in non-medal heats. By clicking you get more information.
