From La Plagne, France
The track has slowed up even more since this morning’s Men’s Skeleton race, but Kaillie Humphries is still fast. The Canada 1 pilot leads a pair of American sleds by .20 and .24 respectively. Jamie Greubel is just a tick ahead of Elana Meyers after Meyers had a slight skid in the uphill portion of the track to scrub off a bit of time. The teams of Kiriasis/Wiacker and Hengster/Versen sit fourth and fifth after the first heat.
American Jazmine Fenlator is 9th after a bumpy first run, while Jennifer Ciochetti sits 12th for the Canadians. Paula Walker sits 10th for Great Britain.
