Made in an early morning rush as light is just starting to hit the clouds. Fixings grabbed from the trunk of my car; no room in the fridge. Thrown in the bag next to avie gear and extra layers.

Smooshed a little more with each transition. Gloves out. Skins in. Skins out. Smoosh.

Water bottle pulled out. The sandwich flows into the vacancy, I drink, then push the bottle back in. Smoosh.

Skins off. Radio chatter. Waiting for cameras. Waiting for light. Johan’s going first. Going to be a bit. Pull out the mangled thing that I made this morning. Jelly on liner gloves. Peanut butter on my face.

Cameras ready. There’s the sun. Goggles on.

Dropping.
