Of course, male skaters are consistently more than female ones, and that\u2019s clearly illustrated by the number of records established by sex: less than a third for the ladies. However, there are quite a few surprises when we deeply analyze records by gender. That\u2019s for my next report.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
As for venues, Erfurt and Inzell are by far our most prolific sources of records, being Herenveen only third. Baselga, a usually dismissed track for it\u2019s seemingly poor outdoor conditions, comes solidly in fourth, surpassing Hamar, none the less.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Finally, as for number of records on single races, 2012 Sprint Games in Thialf boasts first place with a whopping 847, being Erfurt\u2019s MAG on the same season third with 755. What did we eat that year, I wonder? Since then, things went downwards, only to recover a bit in this past season thanks to Baselga\u2019s MAG and\u2026 NED National Champs in Groningen!<\/p>\n

OK, that\u2019s about it for this time. In my next article I\u2019ll delve deeper on age classes and gender; on the last one I\u2019ll show insights about records by country and venue.<\/p>\n
