I Told You Less Martinis And More CardioEpisode Number: 122 Season Num: 11 First Aired: Sunday February 18, 2007 Prod Code: 1101 |
Eleven teams from previous seasons take off on a new adventure around the world. The lively mix of teams includes a past winning team, a diverse of group of players and many familiar faces both hated and loved. The teams take off from the starting line at Miami, Florida and each takes one of two flights departing for Quito, Ecuador. Tension builds early on as one team lies to another about the arrival times of the flights. Once in Ecuador, the teams takes taxis to the Plaza San Francisco and then travel to Pim's Restaurant, three-miles away, where they receive one of three fifteen-minute staggered departure times for the next morning. That morning, teams make their way to the Hacienda Yarahurco in the Cotopaxi National Park, guided by a provided map and with the advice to head to the north entrance. Once teams arrive, they take part in a Detour that involves either searching for missing items from the uniform of a soldier or wrangling and then grooming a horse. Several teams find themselves at the wrong end of the massive park, a costly mistake for one team that ultimately leads to their elimination.

(edit)
Kevin and Drew are the only All-Stars to have appeared on more than two seasons of The Amazing Race, as they had previously raced in Season 1 and made a cameo appearance in the first leg of Season 8.
(edit)
This is the third season to have no team of siblings, the second being season four and the first being season one.
(edit)
Jon Vito/Jill, Rob/Amber, and Eric/Danielle are the only teams to have change in their relationship status since their first races. Jon Vito and Jill went from "Dating" to "Formally Dating". Rob and Amber went from "Engaged" to "Newlyweds". And, of course, Eric and Danielle were on separate teams on their previous race.
(edit)
Rob and Kimberly
When David and Mary first talked to Rob and Amber, David called them "Rob and Kim." Rob and Kim were teammates of David and Mary's from Season 10. (edit) The Gutsy Grannies
Amazed at the energy shown by the teams from Race 10, Team Guido compares themselves to the Gutsy Grannies, a team from the second edition of the race. Senior citizens Peggy Kuhn and Claire Jinks christened their team themselves, although as game players they often found themselves over their heads; shying at scary challenges and falling far behind in the physical ones. Nonetheless they managed to hold on until the third leg where they ended up a full day behind the other teams. (edit)

I Told You Less Martinis And More CardioGreat "Average" The first leg was average, not enough action, too much wasted time looking at cars driving down dirt roads. They did show a new part of the world but for All Stars they should have done a better job. Continue » Posted Feb 21, 2007 8:33 pm PST |
