There are separate Allround and Sprint titles at stake for both genders. The Allround combination comprises 500m, 5000m, 1500m and a 10,000m for men, and 500m, 3000m, 1500m, 5000m for women. In the sprint competition both genders race the 500m and the 1000m twice. Points are calculated based on seconds in the 500m (e.g. times from the 1500m and 5000m will be divided by 3 and 10 respectively).
