Gilmartin: 'I got the job done'

Great Britain short track speed skater Charlotte Gilmartin has said that she was pleased to 'get the job done' after progressing to the quarter-finals of the 500m at the 2014 Winter Olympics.

Gilmartin sneaked through her heat this morning, while fellow Team GB skater Elise Christie also made it into the quarter-finals.

"It was a tough heat and it was a tough draw on the outside but I got the job done," Gilmartin told reporters.


"I knew I had to do some overtaking and I'm been practicing that in training. The pressure was on but I got the job done."

Fellow Brit Jack Whelbourne crashed out of the men's 1500m final earlier today.
