Being consistently good is what gets teams to the podium, Moyse said, which requires a certain mindset.Moyse and Rissling have a game plan that involves ignoring the times they clocked and focusing on fixing small mistakes.

"There's never going to be a perfect bobsleigh run," she said. "So accepting little mistakes and just knowing it's the challenge of tweaking, and seeing how close to the best run that you personally have ever put together."

Canada's Christine de Bruin and Melissa Lotholz are in eighth place.

Humphrieshopes to get into medal contention with brakeman Phylicia George on Wednesday.

"As we saw in the men's race, a lot can happen on day two," Humphries said. "We're really going to focus on what we can improve tomorrow and come out swinging."
