Hayley & Blair get sentimental en route to the Finish Line.

Blair is such a gentleman. Constantly making Hayley feel better for screwing up.

A lot of love for these two! They make it into the ranks of one of my all time favourite teams and I hope to see them race again with an improved relationship and do just as well!

The "I'm gonna miss you" vid still has me teary eyed.

Anyway, here's another behind the scenes vid of them.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/J8EVnMuzVE4" target="_blank" class="new_win">https://www.youtube.com/v/J8EVnMuzVE4</a>

Phil confronts Hayley and Blair about their nickname, while Hayley states what she thinks is a fair reward for running the Race with her.

I'm really emotionally invested in them so I might still post here. Well, unless they get a more interesting team next season.

People compare them to Flo&Zach but I think that's unfair. Flo&Zach are the epitome of Good and Evil combined. While in Hayley&Blair, there's a bit in both. I know everyone has been in Hayley's back but remember Blair's "If a woman doesn't really meet my standard, I really don't want to waste my time." comment?

I'm picturing them facetiming right now, actually. Hayley talking about her day/problems and Blair busy staring blankly and doing something... "BLAIR! LISTEN TO ME!" :lol: :lol: :'(

So sad that they didn't win the race... :'( I think this is the first time ever I'm so mad and disappointed seeing a team got it wrong on a challenge that I decided to skip the remaining episodes until when they both arrived at the Finish Line... :'( :'(

I actually once imagined them get in first at the Finish Line and Blair decided to ask Hayley out or kiss her at the mat, or the opposite. :funny:

However, even though they didn't win, they truly won my heart.. They definitely my favorite M/F team ever! :luvya: :luvya: :luvya:

Just watched this video and the other one posted here and it really makes Tyler & Laura's win way more upsetting  :(

Hayley blames herself for placing third.


This is not a behind the scenes vid. Its the scene where Blair and Hayley reached the mat.


Hayley: If I had to choose someone to do the race again, I would choose Blair.
Blair: I would do it again with Hayley if she promise not to yell at me so much.
Hayley: Well, you have to promise
Blair: to listen. I knew she's gonna say that.


They're really the most memorable team in like the past 12 seasons. I think.

They will return some day. They still have a lot of unfinished business.   :trampb:

Speaking of seeing different sides of people, you two were pretty outspoken about not wanting Hayley and Blair to win. Tell me everything…
Tyler: You know, you hang out at the airport occasionally, but you don’t really see the other teams that much. And consistently, any time that we did see them, they were arguing. We definitely just felt like that attitude that we brought into the race, like, “Hey, let’s appreciate every moment and be grateful for what we have” wasn’t something they had also considered. And I just really didn’t want someone with that attitude to go on in the race.
Laura: After the race we’ve all gotten to know each other, so I personally feel bad for some of the things that Tyler and I said. However, we were speaking on the way that we perceived the situation. People assume that Laura and Tyler are mean for saying these things, but that’s what we saw: Hayley yelling at Blair and Blair being a nice guy.

Well, this made me feel a little better of them winning but I still would have love it if any of the other three won it.

St. Pete nurse 3rd in 'Amazing Race'

St. Petersburg, Florida -- After 35,00 miles, five continents, eight countries and the longest blind date ever, Hayley Keel is back home in St. Pete.

"I've been on blind dates and I've been able to leave if I didn't like it and this I was in it for the long haul," she said at Ferg's during a watch party with hundreds of fans of the "The Amazing Race."

Hayley, a nurse at All Children's Hospital, was paired with Blair Townsend, a Navy doctor, who she had never met until they got to the starting line in the show.

St. Pete nurse 3rd in 'Amazing Race'

"It was worth every second of it," she said. "Good, bad, it was tiring. It was so hard some days, but we made it through and we made It to the last leg which was our ultimate goal."

While the team prescription for love – had enough chemistry to go the distance – they didn't find love or win the race and its $1 million prize.

Still fans cheered as a hometown girl crossed the finish line.

"May the best team win. We had our mistakes, but made it to the final three as a blind date. That's more than we ever could have imagined for ourselves," she said.

Hayley says she has no regrets and she tells me she would absolutely do the amazing race again.
