Walking I get. But power walking? Why not just run for a shorter time?

I was really bummed there was no tribal becuase I was actually excited to see what would happen.

Also, with Joe leaving we don't get to see a fake idol played!

It is interesting how much this group is willing to really look at their options.

Both Coach and Tyson crack me up.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

When Tyson talked about his "hot breath on the back of his neck--even on the small of his back," it was the funniest ever.

Especially give the Utah/Mormon connection.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If I'm reading the 60 Minutes clock correctly, it looks like TAR will be about 45 minutes late.

Is the rule about not selling your personal possessions to cab drivers new? I could swear people had done that in past races.

Regardless, why would you leave your bags even after seeing the redheads go back for theirs?? Why did EVERY noncompeting teammate not immediately run back to the cabs and settle up right then and there??

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I could swear somebody in this season tried to sell a driver their crappy watch. He wouldn't take it though so maybe the issue never really applied.

Yeah, I remember that. I guess it's not breaking the rules unless the cab driver actually takes it?

I think it's interesting that you can get stuff for free, but not trade your stuff. I guess it's so you aren't scamming people with your 'fancy' American stuff? If someone does you a favor, they know they aren't getting anything out of it.

I suspect it's so people don't try to get around the (presumed) "no bringing your own extra cash" rule by bringing jewelry instead. It evens the financial playing field.
