Well I lasted longer in the pool then I thought I would after Gail and Giselle were out first.

I thought John telling Tyler & Kayleen that they were just two legs away was pretty cold.

Yeah, I'm pretty shocked that I'm still in too.

My wife and I sort of just looked at each other and said “did he just actually say that?”

"To be continued..."

WTF?


Yeah, that was a mess, starting with putting them on empty trains 90 minutes apart only to have them all have to wait overnight and start together the next day anyway.

Yeah I was thinking, "An hour and a half, there is no way the other two teams will catch up" What a joke that was.

Is interesting to see Ty and Kat struggle though. They have basically breezed through the race to this point and the weight becomes much heavier when you are now finally chasing at the last minute.

I had wondered if they were going to DQ Tyler, or make him 'use the pole' for the climb, instead of just his arms.

Shame to see Ty and Kat struggle, though love seeing them push through. I wonder if the Race or something else is taking it's toll on Ty. He really looked like he had a massive sunburn or something while he was doing the climbing challenge, too.

It’s a shame to see the other two teams turn against Ty and Kat trying to get them out.

Ben and Anwar would probably be long gone if it wasn’t for that express pass they got.

I get that, but you are also playing to win, and getting rid of the strongest team before the final 3? Well, that's the game.

For sure. Just really has to sting that the masterminds of that plan were the Express Pass recipients.

I'm sort of surprised that Deven and Amanda are top 4.

"Wim-ziggily clong pum fum zananana Calgary."

This week, the teams continue racing in Toronto and we're down to the final three.



Also, Toronto has some ugly-ass taxi cabs.
  1. Tyler & Kayleen (win trip to Melbourne)
  2. Ben & Anwar
  3. Ty & Kat
  4. Deven & Amanda
  5. Jermaine & Justin
  6. Derek & Jaspal
  7. Gracie & Lily
  8. Shayla & Joel
  9. Allie & Eddie
  10. Gail & Gisele
  • Fuzz: Ty & Kat / Gracie & Lily
  • EldrickOnIce: Ben & Anwar / Jermaine & Justin
  • surferguy: Tyler & Kayleen / Allie & Eddie
  • Yeah_Baby: Gail & Gisele / Deven & Amanda
  • GirlySports: Derek & Jaspal / Shayla & Joel
  • getbak: Shayla & Joel / Ty & Kat
  • OutOfTheCube: Deven & Amanda / Derek & Jaspal
  • WhiteTiger: Allie & Eddie / Tyler & Kayleen
  • Superflyer: Jermaine & Justin / Gail & Gisele
  • Amethyst: Gracie & Lily / Ben & Anwar


Next week: The finale, and there's a 66.7% chance the race will be won by a guy named Tyler whose partner is a woman whose name starts with a K-A and who has lived in Calgary at one point in his life.

Oof, I can't believe they spent 30 minutes of the show on that ridiculous language challenge. Ouch.

Good leg beyond that, though. I was beginning to think that Ben & Anwar weren't going to make it since they couldn't see the flag in that one shop (which was well hidden).

Solid final 3, should make for a good finale!

Interesting that the first 3 picks in the draft are the final 3.
Out of Toronto, I don't have much faith in my team.
Good luck to all left in the finale!

I fast forwarded the whole alien part.

Ben and Anwar just can't stop messing up whenever they get a lead. They're in the finale, but I think they are definitely the underdogs to win this thing. These three teams were the three I considered before making my pick. When the race started, I definitely thought I had made the wrong choice, so thanks to Ben and Anwar for managing to do well enough not to get eliminated. Now, hopefully they can be one of those teams that just never quite figures it out until the final leg and suddenly it all comes together for them.

Although I do like both the other teams as well.

Thought the Market challenge was good. Not just situated in one area.
