Translated by Wordport from Xywrite-III Document STK.TXT USA SHORT-TRACK SPEED SKATING OLYMPIC HISTORY US Olympic History: Short-track speedskating has been an Olympic medal sport since 1992, and the United States has always been one of the top nations, although the sport is now dominated by the Koreans, closely followed by the Chinese. In 1992 and 1994 the USA women were led by Cathy Turner who won the 500 metre sprint at both Olympics. The top American man, by far, has been Apolo Anton Ohno, who competed in 2002-10, winning 8 Olympic medals, with 2 golds, 2 silvers, and 4 bronzes. This is the most Olympic medals won by a short-track speedskater, and is also a USA record for the most medals in the Winter Olympics, in any sport.

    SHORT-TRACK SPEED SKATING International Federation: International Skating Union (ISU) Countries Affiliated: 68 (November 2013) Year of Formation: 1892 First Year of Olympic Appearance: 1992 Olympic History: Speed skating has been on the program of every Olympic Winter Games, always contested in paired two-person time trials over a track of 400 metres in length, with one exception. In 1932, the Olympic Winter Games were held in Lake Placid, and the Americans changed the speed skating format, electing to race the events in the American style of mass-start pack racing. The Europeans protested and several of them, notably Finnish speed skating legend Clas Thunberg, refused to attend, but the Lake Placid Organizing Committee persisted and the events were held in that manner. Speed skating in the United States and Canada has almost always been skated in mass-start pack races. It is often contested indoors in this manner, but even the outdoor races were often held pack-style. The style is actually more exciting than two-person time trials, because the risks are high, and the pack allows for drafting and bursts of very high speed. In the 1970s short-track speed skating developed as a fully indoor sport in the American mass-start pack style. The first international competition in short-track took place in Champaign, Illinois (USA) in 1976. The sport’s popularity spread to Europe as well as North America and official World Championships were first held in 1978. It is not well known that Bonnie Blair, who won five gold medals in full-track speed skating, started out and won the 1986 World Championships in short-track.
