How does mass start ice skating work
As of the 2018 Winter Olympics, the mass start of long skating will be scheduled. This discipline in long skating can be seen as a sort of marathon competition, but an abbreviated version.

Long speed skating is normally ridden in different rides. On the individual rides there are two skaters on the track at the same time. In the team pursuit, two teams of three are running against each other.

At the mass start, you don't have to deal with indoor and outdoor runways and cubes on the track.
