Great job, Oval! :cmas16

And going back to that photo of the sign-up sheet in Canada, where he had what was possibly the Final Five, we had a Grace & Jo____ and a Joanne & Mic____, so assuming that is true, then I think both those teams might be in the Final Five! :cmas16
I'd rather walk alone than let them throw dirty confetti. ♥

So this will be two seasons in a row for the Australian edition where the hot blondes place well.

It appears this team (spotted in Meydan Racecourse, Dubai) may be our Shane & Andrew team:



Possible team: Meet friends Shane Haw & Andrew Thoday from Victoria.

It seems TARAus isn't the only recent competition they've entered in  :lol:

These two won the "Effen Great Bloke" competition a few months ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJKh32ARtmQ

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/HJKh32ARtmQ?version=3&amp;amp;hl=en_US" target="_blank" class="new_win">http://www.youtube.com/v/HJKh32ARtmQ?version=3&amp;amp;hl=en_US</a>

They also entered in a "Biggest Titanic fan"competition: http://au.news.yahoo.com/today-tonight/competitions/titanic-biggest-fan (the last video is theirs)

Also looks like these two may possibly have been/are involved in the Victorian police department.. (police officers??)

They're presumed to be in the Final five thanks to the names on the Banff Board.

We believe that this team seen in Vancouver (At Grouse Mountain) is our Emilia & L_____ team.

     



Possible racer: Emilia Pelosi from Sydney, NSW.

Bio here: http://www.emiliapelosi.com/Site/Home.html

Thanks to peach for finding the photos below of Emilia  :<3


   

Comparison with Emilia and racer:

   


Obviously, if indeed she is a racer, then she is assumed to be a part of the final five. I'm not very sure on a partner for her, I guess we'll just have to wait for the cast release to come :)

However, taruslover,

It hasn't been possible to delete posts for about 2 years. What you can do is to delete what you have and insert a tiny character string in its place. I like nvm for nevermind.

The Contestant summary upstream has now been updated to include photos from our other blogger's photos at Meydan Racecourse.

If you see something that's missing or incorrect in it, feel free to let me know so I can fix it  :hrt:

Oh my...if those really are heels... :O is this the first time on any race that a racer has competed in heels?! She looks like a more glamorous Jamie and Cara (I would've considered Jamie glamorous until she posed in Playboy).
And I think I read somewhere on this forum but didn't someone in Canada spot another young M/F team that wasn't Grace/Joseph? Could it be them?


Edit: I found the post.
I was able to catch a few things today in between studying for exams.  It's not super extensive, as it's just bits and pieces of information and evidence, but hopefully this will help:

  At Harbour Green Park, I noticed several two-person kayaks (it was difficult to tell how many there were but it looked like 5), which would fit in with the tweet regarding teams "running down Denman with paddles and life jackets."   I was only able to catch one team (male/female NOT GRACE AND JOSEPH) there, who were possibly the last team.  There were people packing up after they left, including one camera man (I'm not sure if they were production or some news channel) who was getting shots of the boat flags.  They left the area around 11:30am and went up to Hastings St.  I'm assuming they hopped into a taxi as I had lost them after walking up Bute St.  I did manage to see something blue in their hands (Route Info?).

  I then headed up to Grouse Mountain, where I found some teams heading up/down the tram.  At about 1:20, a male/female (GRACE AND JOSEPH)team came out of a tram.  I overheard the female yell to their taxi driver something like "this is the finish line," which I'm assuming was the Pit Stop for this leg of the race.  I overheard a woman and her kids saying something about Crab Park, which may have been the Pit Stop location.  This team had some problems with money (they didn't have enough) but left Grouse within 10 minutes.  I'm not sure if they begged for money when they entered the Starbucks or not.

  During this time, a male/female (NOT GRACE AND JOSEPH) team had just arrived at Grouse Mountain.  (They may have been the team I saw leaving Harbour Green Park earlier)

  The other team I saw was a female/female (EMILIA AND L_____)and they had just got off the tram at about 1:30-1:35.  As they were running to the taxi, I spotted one of the teammates holding a red Roadblock clue (Grouse Mountain=Roadblock). 

  After the female/female team left, I stayed for ~20minutes but nobody else came down during that time.  Unfortunately, I wasn't able to stay any longer to get a glimpse of the other teams or head out to Crab Park.  I was able to get some pictures but some aren't that great due to the distance and angle.



-Male/Female team arriving at Grouse Mountain (possibly the same team I saw at Harbour Green Park)

You can't see the team that well but according to the poster it isn't Grace and Joseph, but the male looks to have quite dark hair too (brown), also the height difference between the man and the woman could be similar to the this team spotted in Dubai? Pure speculation of course but I don't think we've had another male/female team scouted at this point that looks like they may fit the brief (i.e. I don't think it could be the supposed Tarryn Lee Thornton as she seems taller compared to the girl in this Grouse photo).

I think the other teams will be announced over the coming days. Any Perth teams might be announced in 2 hours or so when it hits midnight there.

I don't know if the video will work in the US, but I'm trying to get a screen cap of Donna & Kym. This is the most awful video player I've ever used.
EDIT: Got one, finally:
