The cheerful girl had been a short track skater for seven years before switching to speed skating in 2008.


"People said the two sports have a lot in common, but for me Uomo Nike Air Max 97 Barely Rose Italia , I felt I had learned speed skating from zero. And I had to forget all the old habits," she said.


Zhang hailed teammate Wang Beixing in the post-race press conference. Wang, bronze medalist of the women's 500m at the Vancouver 2010, failed to make the podium at Sochi.


"We are good friends," said Zhang Uomo Nike Air Max 97 Nere Rosse Italia , "She helped me a lot when I started speed skating. She is like my sister."
