The Skating: Record.
The fastest five-mile record for skaters
is credited to Frank Dowd, of Chicago,
in 47 :17. He made this time at Montreal
on April 3, 1885, on a twelve-lap track.
The Clipper Almanac gives no five-mile
time to either. Paulsen or McCormack,
but credits the latter with a six-mile
record in 21:22 on the Crystal rink,
Montreal, a twelve-lap track. McCor
mick says he can skate five miles in be
tween seventeen and eighteen minutes,
and Paulsen is confident he can make
just as good time.
