I like the brothers from Nome. They're so totally laid back.
I admire their skill and their chill (heh), but their bro-speak sets my ears on fire.
I am rooting hard for Favia and Genevieve, but sadly I don't think they're long for this race. If Hakim (?) has truly messed up his knee and can't continue, they'll get another leg (maybe Hakim's good one, bah-dum-bum!).
I rolled my eyes so hard when the dad-and-son team (Jeff and...HUNTER! It just came to me.) opened their rations for the first leg and were incredulous that they weren't vegetarian. Just something about the tone--not "Oh, well we're vegetarians, so this is going to be another aspect of the challenge," but "[indignant noises] Psht. Ucht. We're VEGETARIANS, we've NEVER eaten THIS food before!" Gee, catering must not have gotten your special request, buttercup. Because I'm a terrible person, I didn't even feel bad for Hunter barfing his guts out all night after eating the clams.
I love those ECO-Challenge races so much, and have been enjoying this one. Glad to have a thread to discuss!
