2007 in speed skating

• 3 November: On the starting day of the Dutch Single Distance Championships, Gianni Romme confirms that he quits as active speed skater to take over as coach of Anni Friesinger.
• 17 December: After the Norwegian Championships at Geithus, Norwegian allround champion Mari Hemmer is not selected for the European Championship,[1] as the Norwegian Speed Skating Federation decides they will not use their allotted quota of three skaters. After two days, the decision is changed, and Hemmer, along with Hedvig Bjelkevik (who later declined the place) were selected.[2]
• 25 December: Sprinter Erben Wennemars wins bronze at his first start at the Dutch Allround Championships after lowering his personal best on the 10000 m by nearly 20 seconds. Sven Kramer won the championship.
• 28 December: Five-time medallist at the Turin Olympics, Cindy Klassen, begins the season by winning two gold medals and three silver medals at the Canadian Single Distance Championships.[3]
• 30 December: Anni Friesinger wins four of four distances at the German Allround Championships, but declines a spot at the European Championship. The five-time European Champion will take part at the World Sprint Championship, which she is yet to win, instead.[4]
