HISTORY OF THE OLYMPIC GAMES The first winter sports to be included in the Olympic Games were skating and ice hockey, at the Olympics in London The first true "white Olympics" however were held at Chamonix in . In 1921 the International Week of Winter Sports was launched, with demonstrations of cross country skiing, Nordic combined, ski jumping, artistic skating, speed skating, bobsled and ice hockey. The great hero was the Finn, Clas Thunberg, who was recorded in the history books for a total of six hours of speed skating. Curiously, alpine skiing was only introduced in at Garmisch-Panterkirchen , by the efforts of Sir Arnold Lunn, the English nobleman who had organized the sport's first world cup in 1931. After the war, the Winter Olympic Games started again in at Saint Moritz . Swedish athletes, who hadn't taken part in the war, outshone the athletes from the other nations in all the events. Martin Lundstrom and Nils Karlsson painted the podiums blue and yellow in the cross country. At

HISTORY OF THE OLYMPIC GAMES The rules The history All against all
Short-track is a spectacular and fast event. While speed skating is competed in pairs on long distance tracks, short-track racing is held on a small field (the length of a hockey field: 111.12 metres) with at least four skaters for the 500 and 1000m races and six skaters for the 1500m Short-track is divided into the individual and relay categories, for men and women. Oval track
The races are held on an oval track measuring 60x30m. The events Men 500 m 4.5 laps 1000 m 9 laps 1500 m 13 laps 5000 m relay 45 laps Women 500 m 4.5 laps 1000 m 9 laps 1500 m 13.5 laps 3000 m relay 27 laps Individual events
In the individual category, all skaters participate in the 500m, 1000m and the 1500m, and the competition consists of a series of heats of between four and six athletes. The top two athletes from each heat go through each round until four remain, who then go on to compete in the final. There are also the B finals. Disqualification
Athletes who cause serious collisions by deliberately pushing or obstructing other competitors are disqualified. No more than one false start is allowed.

Speed Skating History Speed Skating in Big Sky Country Speed Skating History Speed skating was the first of the three forms of skating to develop into a sport. (The three forms of skating are speed skating, figure skating and hockey.) As early as 1500, the Dutch were especially famous for putting blades to ice in a race. In the 18th century, speed skating's popularity spread across Europe, and organized races began for English aristocrats. By the late 1800s, steel skates had revolutionized the sport, and modern competitions were born. The Dutch again led the pack by creating the double track, as well as the competition format still essentially in use today for all long track races. With the advent of the Winter Olympics, speed skating's popularity continued to grow. In fact, speed skating has produced more medals than any other Olympic event. Many of the Olympics' most famous names, including Bonnie Blair, Eric Heiden and Olav Koss, are speed skaters. Speed Skating in Big Sky Country Montana has its own speed skating history, starting with our current Lieutenant Governor. Judy Martz is a fourth generation Montanan who has lived most of her life in the Butte area. In 1963, became a member of the U.S. World Speed Skating Team; in 1964, she represented the United States at the Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, Austria. Her Olympic successand her love of speed skatingwould stay with her. Years later, she played a key role in opening the

Games Marred by Controversy over Judging Decisions The Salt Lake Olympics were held under unprecedentedly heavy guard in the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks on the United States. The number of participating countries totaled 78, the largest in Olympic history, and the United States made every effort to lead the Olympic Games to a success despite the threat of terrorism. But the Games were rife with troubles.
When the Canadians made complained over a major judging controversy in pairs figure skating that one of the judges was under a certain pressure, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in an extraordinary move gave a gold medal to the Canadian pair on top of the Russian pair. Complaints came one after another also over decisions in short-track speed skating and ice hockey. The Japanese lodged a protest with the International Skating Union (ISU) over Satoru Terao's controversial disqualification in a short-track event, while Russia and South Korea at one point threatened to boycott the Games on the grounds that judging decisions were allegedly biased in favor of the host country.
In cross-country skiing, two skiers - one man and one woman - were stripped of gold medals after failing in a doping test.

Marc Gagnon and Jonathan Guilmette celebrate victory
Canada have won gold in an eventful 5,000 metre short track speed skating relay. Marc Gagnon crossed the line ahead more than five seconds ahead of Italy, with China coming home in third. The United States finished off the pace in fourth after Rusty Smith had fallen earlier in the race. But Canada, the gold medal winners at Nagano and the only team not to crash, had an anxious wait before their win was confirmed. At an early change-over, China fell back after a clash of skates with the Canadians, but judges deemed it accidental. That was the only trouble the Canadian team of Gagnon, Jonathan Guilmette, Francois-Louis Tremblay and Mathieu Turcotte experienced over the course of 44 laps. "We were very confident of winning, but we were very tired. We really pushed and got it," Gagnon said. The relay gold left him as the most decorated short track skater in Olympic history with five medals.

News Corp Sites Online Media Kit ... Print Media Kit Smooth moves Thursday, January 23, 2003 Today's Classroom Extra Page looks at skating and its importance in winter sports. The graceful activity we know as ice-skating dates back hundreds of years. Skating was a form of transportation across frozen bodies of water. Cold weather countries like Finland, Sweden, Norway and Russia used this method of travel. Early ice skates were made from the leg bones of large animals by cutting holes at each end of the bone and using leather straps to tie them onto people's feet. The animal bones were later replaced by flat iron runners. These were attached to shoes using leather straps. Steel skates replaced the flat iron runners. Recreational ice-skating became a popular winter social activity, so much so that it developed into a sport. There are four Winter Olympic events that rely on ice-skating: ice hockey, speed-skating, ice-dancing and figure-skating. Speed-skating is a race against time. Men race separately from women. Competitors skate around an oval track at speeds up to 30 mph. Men's and women's speed skating events are measured in meters, from 500 to 10,000.

According to legend, it was built to house the first image of Buddha brought to Japan. This town and its jagged mountain peaks form one of the largest ski areas in Japan. Close to 3,000 athletes from 72 countries are here for this year’s games. The Winter Olympics have brought together some of the world’s finest athletes since 1924, when the first official games were held in Chamonix, France. The games have survived two world wars, terrorism, and political boycotts. The triumphs and losses have become part of each participating nation’s collective history. Olympic Memories.

http://www.milo.com.ph/iceskating/history.htm
Skeletal remains with animal bone blades tied to the feet testify to skating’s existence as early as 10,000 BC. These remains were found in peat bogs in the Netherlands. Scandinavia is called the mother of skating because of the sport’s popularity there, beginning around AD 1000. Ice skating was primarily a means of transportation at first, although documents from the Netherlands indicate that speed races were held in towns as early as the 15th century. American athlete Jackson Haines is known as the father of modern figure skating. Haines was born in 1840 in New York City. After studying dance and ballet, he became a dancing master and applied his dancing techniques to figure skating. He performed around the world and became well known for his imaginative and artistic techniques. Haines’s style was enthusiastically received in Europe and eventually became accepted internationally. The formation of national and international skating organizations began during the 1890s. In 1892 the International Skating Union (ISU) was established. Today the ISU defines the rules and sets performance standards for speed skating, figure skating, and ice dancing competitions. Also in the late 1800s the National Amateur Skating Association of the United States and the International Skating Union of America were founded.

http://www.sportshumanitarian.com/Inductees/BLAIR.HTM
BONNIE BLAIR THE LONELY GAME. That's what Norwegians call the sport of speed skating. It's you, a 400m frozen oval, thousands of left turns, all in the quest to go faster, for a new personal best. For BONNIE KATHLEEN BLAIR, franchise player of America's last three Winter Olympic teams, it's been not only a lonely game, but a search for appreciation and respect, for her and for speed skating. The solitary saving grace from the wreckage of 1994, the single worst year in the history of sport. A one-woman dynasty, as dominant in her sport (and deserving to be mentioned in the same sentence) as a few guys named Jordan, Gretzsky, Montana and Ail are (and were) in theirs. She is, by any reasonable measurement, one of the greatest U.S. athletes ever. How successful was Bonnie when the Olympic flame was lit? From February 22, 1988, in Calgary, via the French Alps in 1992 (Albertville), until February 23, 1994, in Lillehammer, Norway, try five gold and one bronze. She is the proud owner of nearly twenty percent of the entire U.S. Winter games medal haul (and forty-two percent of its gold) since 1989. Bonnie didn't just excel in Olympic years; far from it. Bonnie was an eleven-time World Cup points champion, in three different disciplines from 1986 until last year. She was the first woman to go under thirty-nine seconds in the 500m and in the last race of her career, on March 18, 1995 (her birthday), set a personal best and broke at long last her seven year, twenty-day old American record in the 1000m. A real Ted Williams-like way to go out.
