AR Winners!!

Today was the finale of the Amazing Race. I did not get to see all of the challenges they had to do, but it sounds like it was a tough day. I helped with one of the first challenges in the pool. The teams had to get into the pool and keep a feather in the air until they got halfway down the length of the pool. The feather could not get wet. If it did they had to come back to the beginning and get another one.

Ken and Eric were the first to arrive and let me see if I can paint this picture for you as I saw it. I so wish we had this little scenario on video because I found it quite funny. As Ken and Eric run into the pool area we tell them they have to get into the pool. It looked like Ken hesitated for oh say 1 second and then he was in the pool...TENNIS SHOES AND ALL!! Eric looked confused, hesitated for oh say 2 seconds and boom he was in the pool same as Ken, tennis shoes and all! Talk about serious game play! I give them props because I bet it was not fun running the rest of the race in wet shoes and socks. Oh that is just a blister waiting to happen...ouch!

Lindsay and Angela were right on their heels, but they did manage to take the time to take off their shoes and socks. Ken and Eric finished first and then Lindsay and Angela weren't too far behind. Patti and Cynthia came in right before Lindsay and Angela finished.

Fast forward to the pitstop since that is where I went to next. Apparently they had to do a lot of running through the woods, they had a a memory challenge where they had to put the pitstops in order (I would have so smoked that challenge), and then I guess they had to do a ropes course as well. Then they finally came out of the woods and to the pitstop. And the winners are.....Lindsay and Angela with Ken and Eric only seconds behind!! Congratulations ladies on a job well done!!! 

See everyone next fall for SURVIVOR!! This time I promise to take the right person to the final two...Chad!!
