No, actually. There was Marcy and Ron in AR15. She was 60 and he 59. That's really old even though Fran at 61 and Barry at 63 were trivially older.

Erm apskip, I'm talking about last "memorable" pair. Not just any other old couple. Although you're right that we have Marcy and Ron, but that's like 3 seasons ago, still... so hoping they will do well and carry Meredith and Gretchen's spirit with them!
David:

Nice Article!
Albany couple talk about ‘Amazing’ adventure By Jennifer Moody, Albany Democrat-Herald
--- Quote ---If you’re going to be a contestant on CBS’ “The Amazing Race,” Bill and Cathi Alden say it definitely helps to have been a teacher.
The reality TV show pits 11 two-person teams against one another in a race around the world.
The Los Angeles Times reported this year’s race will travel through four continents and 20 cities and cover nearly 40,000 miles.
The season starts at 8 p.m. Sunday.
“Spending 30 years, both of us, dealing with people, you read people well. That was definitely an advantage,” said Bill, who taught science at Calapooia Middle School for 29 years. Cathi spent 25 years as a teacher and administrator with Albany schools, then another few years as an administrator in Corvallis.

--- Quote ---They didn’t make the cut, and when CBS called again last year, they didn’t advance then, either.
But in March, the station called again and asked for an updated video. This time, the Aldens were in.

Interesting information. If I read it right they first applied for TAR 16.
