Not in the Olympics, but in some competitions you can skate as long as marathons! But in the Olympics, the longest distance is 3000m
BEcause many people participate in it... Many people make their lives by skating.
Eric Heiden won five speed skating medals, all gold, (500 meters, 1000 meters, 1500 meters, 5000 meters, and 10000 meters) and all at the 1980 Winter Games in Lake Placid.

Through the 2010 Games in Vancouver, none. Anastasia's first Olympics will be the 2010 Games where she will compete in the ladies 500 meters speed skating event.
That depends how long you travel at that speed. The general relation is: distance = speed x time On the other hand, to convert from kilometers to meters, just multiply by 1000.
