Solid: In India, Teams must travel one mile to a coal depot and smash enough coal to fill two burlap sacks with 175 pounds. Then, they must transport the coal on a flatbed bicycle to a store four blocks away to receive their next clue. While this option was physically demanding, Teams with enough muscle could finish quickly. No Team chose this option.

Liquid: To complete Liquid, Teams must travel three miles to a local tea stall, select a tea cart and deliver a cup of tea to five specific employees from a list of ten in a nearby three-story office building in exchange for their business card. After collecting all five business cards, Teams must return to the tea stall to receive their next clue. While the task didn’t require strength, searching through the crowded offices could be frustrating and take a long time. All Teams remaining in the Race chose this option: Rob & Amber, Meredith & Gretchen, Lynn & Alex, Ron & Kelly and Uchenna & Joyce.

India, one Team member had to search more than 600 different-sized tin boxes for one of ten containing a clue. Alex, Amber, Kelly, Uchenna and Gretchen opened tin boxes for their Teams on this leg.


There was no Fast Forward on this leg.


Ron & Kelly found the Yield on this leg, but opted not to use it on Rob & Amber.
