The Super G.
It's a foggy and overcast morning at the top of the mountain in Sochi. The Super G is about to begin - a downhill speed skiing event that requires intense concentration and razor sharp turns with wide set gates.
Each skier runs the course one at a time, and due to the unusual warmer temperatures in Sochi, the course conditions are unpredictable and several skiers wiped out during the practice runs yesterday.
Several injured skiers were helicoptered off the mountain and heard mumbling something about being distracted by a cow. The cow reports have thusfar been unsubstantiated.
What is your preference as to the order in which you will ski the Super G?
A) go first, and set the score to beat.
B) be in the middle and hope the course has been cleared of cows.
C) go last, knowing what the score is to beat
A.
