Amazing Race: Leg 8

// April 5th, 2010 // fun

Holy lucky Cowboys, Batman!

Jet and Cord, whether they win this thing or not, will always be able to boast about setting a new Amazing Race record:

From non-elimination to first place on the very next leg. Wow.

When they blitzed through the balance Detour, I had this crazy feeling they’d still end up back at the next cluebox despite the Speed Bump. Mostly because those Speed Bumps are usually cheesy, easy tasks that take little time to complete. Even this one was five kilometers away and they STILL got back waaaay ahead of anyone else.

I feel really sad for Steve and Allie, I was growing fond of them and wishing they’d go far. They played a good race, but just had that unfortunate crappy taxi driver, not to mention making a mistake in attempting to avoid traffic by running instead of staying in the cab.

Next week looks great…Brent and Caitie get into it with Carol and Brandy…love it!
