Math problem- lapping joggers!?!?

Jan can run around a quarter-mile track in 90 seconds. Silvia can run around the same track in 72 seconds. They started running in the same direction from the same place at the same time. The two women agreed to stop when Silvia caught up to Jan for the third time(lapping her twice, then catching up to her again). How far did each one run?
