The nuclear arms race between the US and USSR ran from about 1943 (early Manhattan project) to 1991 (end of USSR).
However every time a new weapon is created countries usually enter an arms race to make sure they have better weapons of that type than any other country. An example of this was the introduction of war chariots around 2500 BC, which triggered a series of arms races that lasted past AD 600.

How did the arms race during the cold war start?
when the usa and the soviet union both wanted more power. While the above answer is correct, the arms race started when the United States launched the first ever Atom bomb. With this and the end of WWII, there were increased tensions between the US and the USSR because of acts during negotiating where the USSR didn't exactly get what it wanted. Also because of acts during WWII where the soviets were left alone against Nazi strikes. So after the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki the USSR developed its first Nuke and things got interesting. Then countries got their nukes established as well. Then the hydrogen bomb was invented and its plans leaked throughout the world. That was the beginning of the arms race where USSR and USA wanted to get more power, more weapons, and to appear more threatening.

Explain How can you start and end at the same place?
If you leave your home for a walk, or a trip or a race-we'll use that. you start your race on the track where the pylons are, you run 800 meters around the circular track. which brings you back to the pylons for the end of the race at the final meter. SO BASICALLY- the starting line doubles as the finish. you start running at the pylons, and end the race at the pylons also. and it doesn't HAVE to be a circle, if you start a trip from your home, walk to the store and come back home. you start at your home and come to the end of the trip at your home also.
