Paddle: In Puente Viejo, Argentina, Teams choosing Paddle must work with three professional rowers to take an inflatable raft on a seven-mile course down the river. The swift current would propel them forward, but navigating the river’s twists and turns could slow them down. Meredith & Gretchen, Susan & Patrick, Lynn & Alex, Uchenna & Joyce, Ron & Kelly, Rob & Amber, Ray & Deana and Debbie & Bianca rafted downriver on this leg.

Pedal: To complete Pedal, each Team member had to choose a mountain bike and follow a seven-mile course along train tracks in Puente Viejo, Argentina. While needing to use their own power to navigate the rocky course, Teams with strong legs could finish quickly. Only Brian & Greg chose this option.

At Camping Suizo, Argentina, one Team member had to eat a traditional Argentine meal of cow rib, pork sausage, blood sausage, cow intestine, cow udder, an entire kidney and part of a cow’s saliva gland. Each person’s portion weighed four pounds. Once they finished the entire portion, they would receive their next clue.
