Two lanes on a 400-metre oval ice track and two skaters is all you need for an exciting speed skating race. At the International Children´s Winter Games 2016 the young students will compete over the distances 500m, 1000m, a Mass Start-Race as well as in the Mixed Team Sprint. As the inside lane is shorter than the outside one, skaters change lanes after every lap, with skaters approaching from the outside having right-of-way at the crossover. Fans of the sport enjoy witnessing the incredible speeds the skaters reach during their laps.
