    That was definitely the hardest final they have ever put them through. I am surprised Hunter finished.

    Good for Wes/Turbo being so close to Theo. They still have 26miles to go right? I have a hard time seeing how any of them go 26 more miles unless it is in a car or a week later.

    i feel like the prior 1 or 2 finals had been lacking in the physical endurance dept, so this was much welcomed.

    Pretty excited to see how this finishes up but hard to envision anyone other than Theo.

    For a minute I thought Turbo was going to pull a Zack and show it's only popcorn muscles w the way he was cramping up.

    Hunter is 100% going in. Either the guys vote him in, or one of the girls will pick him. The girls will know they won’t put him against them in a physical challenge, and he’s a wounded gazelle when it comes to a mental challenge. No brainer.

    My damn DVR didn’t record it last night so I had to wait for it to come on on demand

    -Georgia being medically DQ’d that early was a god send for her, she would have been dead if she kept going

    -heart sank when turbo went down

    -liked ninja’s strategy of knocking out those games and resting her body...but shit she’s an hour behind.

    -there’s gotta be a mental aspect of this second part that’ll surely slow Theo down, he was rather pedestrian at puzzles on the season

    I have zero idea how any of these guys walk another 25 miles much less run it, this is grueling

    also I had no idea what turbo was doing with all that food and running right after but after seeing him explain he was training for an eating portion of the final....genius. Don’t think I’ve ever seen anybody train for that on this show

    Great 1st half of the final. Add some swimming in leg 2 and a Mnt Climb and we'll have a stew going

    Dang Theo gotta win. My hatred of Cara aside if he just on the beach he's got a good chance to win the whole thing.

    I’m liking that they pay 2nd and 3rd again. I thought the whole “nobody gets paid except 1st” was kind of dumb.

    Turbo could be Dynasty going forward. Hard to imagine who or what could beat him.

    I hope somebody sacks up him and challenges him man to man in an daily elimination. Hopefully a headbanger.

    I am happy for Wes. He knows the game, he knows his character and plays it up well. Like he said, he took several seasons off and survived (probably) the strongest season of competitors in a looooong time. In my head he’s much older than Theo and Turbo, but I have no idea if that’s true. Took home 50k. Not a bad day.

    Ninja should have gotten something for being the top girl finisher. Turbo and Theo were easy to root for too. Cara was the only annoying one and took that L just in time. Fun season. I think a lot of these new people will be back.

    Turbo set up pretty well going forward. Just politically, he’s a nice dude, so he won’t make people mad, but also, who would want to be on his bad side after the showing how he holds a grudge? Then physically, nobody wants to call him out and even if they did, he’d probably be favored to win. Vegas gonna have him at -300 next season

    I was surprised they let a Ninja Warrior on the show. I thought she would be too well trained and in shape for the other cast mates to really compete.

    Little did I know they also cast a legitimate Turkish killer on the show.

    Turbo was trying to yell the correct combo to Theo from his kayak. Turbo is awesome but if Theo doesn’t take forever with the math/lock he probably would’ve won. I’m glad Theo couldn’t hear what he was yelling out.

    That was a really enjoyable season overall, even with most of the “main” players seemingly gone fairly early.

    Great move for them to get rid of all the stupid gimmicks and horrible episode splits where they try to end everything on a cliff hanger.

    And for the love of god, never go back to saving the announcement of the winner for part 2 of the reunion. This was so much better

    Best season in a real long time. Turbo could never compete again and be a legend. Theo would have been the best addition in years if not for Turbo. Weird what happens when you add real athletes to the show, maybe we've been overrating how good these competitors actually are.

    Some of that, but I would love to see an in-his-prime CT face these guys instead of the older, fatter version that's been around the last few seasons, for example. I don't see Bananas having an avenue to success anymore, though. The athletes are getting better and the newcomers are much more eager to get rid of him than work with him.

    They often cheat at puzzles or teams will break up their competed puzzle.
