The annual competition is at the only indoor bobsled/skeleton track in the U.S., the Mt. Van Hoevenberg Olympic Sports Complex in Lake Placid.

Competitors are measured on the speed and velocity of their pushes with winners determined by combined times from two fastest runs.

In the women’s pilot competition, Love, a runner-turned bobsledder out of West Jordan, had the fastest combined time of 11.33 seconds.

The competition will continue Thursday with the men’s and women’s combo push competition. They can be streamed on USA Bobsled’s social media.
