Inline speed skating is focused on the roller sport involving racing on inline skates. The sport takes place either indoors on an oval track, or outdoors on a track or on the road.
Indoor speed skating, a variation typically seen in the United States, uses an oval 100 meter track and is competed on an individual or team relay basis.
Outdoor speed skating either takes place on a closed track, typically around 200 meters long with both banked or flat sides, or on a road course. The road variation takes place on actual roads or closed public park roads or paths.
