Topic: TAR 30 Contestant **SPOILERS**

[fossil-racer]

Well did the team look young? 500 people is a lot of people to save if it’s a young team. Are we sure that was what Phil said?

1500

Woman was Lifeguard of year maybe??

This is the best I got. A match???
If you want to follow that line of thinking, there is a Cynthia Aguilar from Miami who was named FLA's Lifeguard of the Year in 2011. Her face seems to match one angle I found in a video, but I can't be really sure without something more clear.

[north09]

Nah, she seems a little heavier... moving on then. Wasn't gonna be that easy.

[RealityFreakWill]

Someone posted on  my FB timeline telling me that the F/F red team are Kayla Fitzgerald and Dessie Mitcheson. I googled, think it's a match. Just sayin'!

[fossil-racer]

^^^ I think you're right.

I double checked and the other Kayla is from Australia. LOL

[HavaDrPepper]

^^^I think so too.

I saw an IG photo earlier today of the cast and there was 1 comment by a gal that said she knew both of the girls in red.  Her last name is Mitcheson and apparently she is Dessie's mother.  Her IG is LindaMitcheson and she has photos of Dessie on there.

Edited to add: IG dessiemitcheson and IG kaylafitz3

Yes, I was there at the starting line, and team #10 (ring girls/instagram models) are definitely Kayla Fitzgerald (seems to go by Kayla Fitz on social media) and Dessie Mitcheson!

In my picture, you can also see team #8 (x-games skiers). I can confirm that Kristi Leskinen's partner is Jen Hudak!

You can also see team #9 in this picture (identical twins who served in the military, I believe Phil said they're firefighters). I have no clue what their names are

Additional Info on our Ring Girls Kayla Fitzgerald and Dessie Mitcheson:

Both of the Ring Girls are . They're both on Sports Illustrated's Top 15 #SISwimSearch. They also do Fitness Modelling and would normally be seen in HBO Boxing.

Not only will these 15 lucky ladies be showcasing our debut swimwear line, they'll also be competing for a chance to be featured in the 2018 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue.

Additional Info on our Goat Yoga Instructors / Moms April Gould and Sarah Williams:


Not only they both competed on American Ninja Warrior, they are fitness-savvy. Really tough moms and somewhere in their early 40's.

April Gould and Sarah Williams have been long time friends.  They do everything together and get along mostly because of their quirky personalities, crazy ideas, and time they spent together on their American Ninja Warrior dream.  Sarah was on the show 2013 and April in 2015 and 2016.

Sarah has been teaching yoga  for 20+ years and owns Desert Paddleboards, a company which rents out boards both to locals and tourists to enjoy nearby lakes and rivers all year long. She also teaches Paddleboard yoga and fitness classes at pools all around the city. As the paddleboarding season slowed down this fall, she recognized the need for a creative way to allow  people to exercise outside! Yoga can sometimes be BORING but on a paddleboard or with a GOAT...its FUN!

April Gould  is Arizona's Famous Goat Farmer! April was a professional water skier for Seaworld for several years before buying a small secluded 3 acre farm home in Gilbert. Seeing the need for lawn mowers and friends for her 3 kids, they adopted their first herd of Goats in 2004. She soon realized tending goats was a great workout and started using them as training partners. She was eventually featured on American Ninja Warrior as the “Goat Whisperer” in 2015 and 2016 and now, partnered with Sarah, is extending this widespread “Goat Yoga” exercise regimen to the public.  April and her 3 children raise and care for these kids (goats) daily, making them gentle, sweet, and loving animals.

Goat yoga is therapeutic and helps relieve the daily stresses of life! How can you be sad when there is a Goat walking by? Goat Yoga clears your mind. Goat yoga will make you HAPPY!  Think of Goat Yoga as a chance to release endorphins from exercise and increase oxytocins with pet therapy... there's research on this, believe us!

So give it a try!! Its SO much fun! Like throwing a big party with Yoga and Goats!

Forget aerial yoga, paddle board yoga and even Bikram Yoga. Goat yoga is the hottest yoga trend sweeping Arizona. The classes take place on April Gould’s farm. But this “home grown” concept is actually the brain child of friend and yoga instructor Sarah Williams. She said that when classes first started in October, people were a little slow to catch on. But now they’re booking up, and fast!

One participant says the challenge is in getting the right angle to hold up the goat on your back. According to Jackson Minor, “The best part is, apparently the goats enjoy it more than anyone else."

Gould and Williams offer the classes for $10 an hour. The farm is located in a suburb of Phoenix.

Ring Girls: It's Kayla Fitz and Dessie Mitchenson confirmed.

Y'all are doing great!

Figured out team Number 2 – the Lifeguard Lovebirds!! 

Confirmed that they are Brittany Austin and Lucas Bocanegra. Here is my photo of them from Sunday:

https://imgur.com/a/uQwP3

And here are their Instagrams:

Brittany: https://www.instagram.com/bitaba10/
Lucas: https://www.instagram.com/luc8719/

I think I heard Phil say on Sunday that they've saved 1,500 lives between them and that they met on Miami Beach. They are Miami Beach Ocean Rescue lifeguards.

Welcome to RFF sab6888! It is indeed a match. Great work on the find!  I also found out that they are both Hispanic-American. Brittany is of Mexican descent.

[ghmorello]

Just missing the twins now, right?

[Maanca]

Yup.

[TARUSAFan]

That's the same thing Matt Ladley from last season was in, wasn't it?

Yup, I bet Matt Ladley from last season knows Jen Hudak. I've found out that Jen Hudak is sponsored by Rockstar Energy, and so does Matt Ladley.

[ghmorello]

Why are we having problems with identifying the last team?

[Plaidmoon]

Why are we having problems with identifying the last team?

It's not easy finding pair of EMTs out of the thousands in this country. There isn't an EMT registry where you can type in "Find all twins" and out pops a list with pictures. Personally I think identifying all but one team at this point is good, better than usual.

[Calibound2]

Ya I’m so proud of everyone this season. All teams identified except for 1 team. We atleast know they are twins EMTS that served in Afghanistan. So atleast we even have #hashtags for each team and don’t just have to identify them as colors or gender
