Thanks GB! You are the best! :hearts: :luvya: :<3
CanadianOwl:
Not sure if this is the right place to put this, but I have created a few speadsheets based on TAR team averages for people to check out.
One ranks the career average of every single team that's been on the race (so teams that have competed in 2+ seasons have the averages in both seasons combined). One has the averages of teams that never been last (and never eliminated to keep the spirit of the data). One has the averages of winning teams, and one has the highest averages of each season.
Here are the spreadsheets.
Some interesting things are: Teri & Ian have the lowest average of a team that's never been last nor eliminated; there have been two instances of teams being tied for the highest average (TAR 1 & 3); and there have been 291 teams that have competed on the race.
(291 total teams - 2 mixed teams - 10 4-person teams)*2 + 4*10 4-person teams = 598 people have run the race (in the American version).
Steel of Scandinavia:
If we look at all the contestants to ever run the race, the age gap between the youngest and oldest racer is 63 years. The youngest contestant we've seen on the show is Austin Black at age 8 in Season 8 (Family Edition), while the oldest contestant is Jordan "Jody" Kelly from Season 16, racing at the age of 71.
If we exclude the family edition, the age gap would be 50 years, with there having been multiple 21 year old contestants (age requirement in normal seasons).
If look at all the contestants , the only ages in the gap we haven't seen a racer have is 55, 64 and 67. There hasn't been anyone at the age of 10, 13 or 18 either, but unless we're getting another Family Edition, it would be highly unlikely to ever see someone that young again.
EDIT:
* Zac from s19 was 19 years old when racing, making the age gap 52 years when excluding the Family Edition.
* There have been contestants that have been 20 years old as well, which means that even though the age gap was bigger than I originally wrote, there are still only the ages I mentioned that we haven't seen.

Zac from TAR19 was 19 years old.
