You right this guy is just stupid and dosn't know what there talkin about. I speed skate and we have to start off with a running start then start to pace it then on the last 2 laps its a sprint or 3. Also i do 5 step and 6 step Techniques 5 for long races 6 for short races. I not best in stamina but i am the best sprinter on the team.

Yes, athletes nowadays reach higher speeds than in the past. There are a few reasons for this including advancements in technology, changes in technique, and tracks that lend themselves to greater speeds.
