Keep Fit And Have Fun - Then Race Your Ass Across Canada


My Mother and I are big fans of The Amazing Race. It really is a fantastic reality show/game show that takes contestants literally around the world in 30 days. Some of the challenges break their spirits and the way the teams get along together is essential to being the first team across the finish line. I love to root for pairs to either succeed or fail.

This summer Amazing Race Canada is starting it's first season. They are only travelling across Canada and not the rest of the world so I hope that will be interesting enough to hold the audience's attention. Either way it will be good Canadiana.

One of my favorite news items today was that Hal Johnson and Joanne McLeod were going to be one of the teams. Since the 80s, they have made government funded 1 minute health PSA's called BODY BREAK that ran constantly on commercial TV. Even as they had a kid of their own, they still preached a healthy lifestyle message. It will be fun to watch if they have real live chemistry to match their on screen relationship chemistry.

I look forward to this couple's relationship melting down like ice cream in the summer heat.
