The Amazing Race 11

The Amazing Race 11 (titled The Amazing Race: All-Stars) is the eleventh installment of the popular four time Emmy Award winner reality television show, The Amazing Race. The Amazing Race 11 featured eleven teams of two, with a pre-existing relationship, in a race around the world.

The Amazing Race hired challenge producer Alan Bishop to design new tasks and challenges for this season. Bishop was responsible for challenges in recent installments of Survivor (Vanuatu, Guatemala, Panama).

The Amazing Race joins fellow CBS reality competitions Survivor and Big Brother with all-star editions. An advertisement following the finale of Season 10 on December 10, 2006 confirms an earlier story from Variety (based on information from a CBS spokesperson on November 21, 2006) that this edition will feature 11 teams from previous seasons in an all-star format. In a TV Guide interview, host Phil Keoghan stated that that the production team's goal for the race "wasn't to pick the best racers," but "to pick the teams that have earned the most attention over the last 10 seasons".

Prior to news of the 11th race being an All-Star race, applications were due on June 2, 2006. Final casting interviews were scheduled for August 2006, yet no confirmation had been made as of mid September 2006 as to whether the final casting interviews took place. On September 28, 2006 CBS gave the go-ahead to an 11th season of the series.

The season premiered on February 18, 2007 at 8:00 PM EST, 7:00 CST for one hour, and the season finale was on May 6, 2007.

Template:FnbDustin & Kandice arrived 4th, but they had missed the clue to the Detour, having simply arrived by chance at one of the options. They had to go back and get the clue before checking in, but it did not affect their placing.
Template:FnbUchenna & Joyce arrived 3rd, and were assessed a 30 minute penalty for being marked for elimination and not arriving 1st. It did not affect their placing.
Template:FnbJoe & Bill arrived 5th, and were assessed a 30 minute penalty for being marked for elimination and not arriving 1st. Eric & Danielle checked in shortly after the penalty started, and Joe & Bill were eliminated.
Template:FnbThe Roadblock count does not include the results of any unaired Roadblocks.
Template:FnbJoyce confirmed in a post-race interview that she had done the newspaper recycling Roadblock prior to being eliminated. Her performance is not included in this tally, however.
Template:FnbEric & Danielle arrived 2nd, and were assessed a 30 minute penalty for being marked for elimination and not arriving 1st. They fell to 3rd

• Red means the team was eliminated.
• Purple means the team was the last to arrive at a pit stop in a non-elimination leg of the race and was thus "marked for elimination", meaning that if that team did not place first on the next leg, they would receive a 30 minute penalty.
• Green means the team won the Fast Forward clue.
• Matching colors of + symbols indicate teams who worked together during part of the leg as a result of the Intersection route marker.
• A yellow > means that team chose to use the Yield; < indicates the team who received it; <> indicates a leg where the Yield was available but not used.

Notable Events in The Amazing Race 11

Records and similar items specifically related to teams having appeared twice on the show ("career records") are not considered in these lists.

General

• Eric & Danielle (Season 9) are the only all-stars who did not previously race together as a team on their season, though they did race against each other's respective teams; they met during the race and later started dating.
• Colin Guinn & Christie Lee Woods were expected to be in the All-Star edition, but could not participate because Christie became pregnant.
• Phil Keoghan was asked to submit a list of 15 teams that he thought should return. Ten of them were chosen. The one he didn't choose was Eric & Danielle. He said, "I didn't think of that new combination, which actually is a really good one."

Pre-Race

• Joe & Bill had to pull out of the Return of the Racers blog and a weekly live show TV session on BuddyTV during The Amazing Race 10 to participate in this season.
• In an online interview at CBS.com, Jill cited Wikipedia as one of the sources she and John Vito used to read up on former races and racers before embarking on this Race.
• Dustin & Kandice were not available for media interviews, including The Early Show and Finish Line, after their elimination from Season 10 due to their participation in this season. David & Mary, also from Season 10, were able to participate in media interviews as their elimination did not interfere with the taping of this season.

In-Race

• Chip Arndt, the winner of Season 4, ran into racers Charla & Mirna and Teri & Ian on Leg 1 at Miami International Airport. Chip was given permission to report his sightings but to not give any specific names on CBS's Return of the Racers blog.
• In Leg 1, Mary wore a shirt saying "Missing" in reference to their allies The Cho Brothers (Erwin & Godwin) from Season 10. Later on, in Leg 2, David wore a shirt saying "Lost" with a picture of Phil on it; these same shirts had also been worn by Erwin & Godwin.
• The website for the show mentions that in Leg 3, two teams (Uchenna & Joyce and Rob & Amber) attempted the 40-foot climb part of the Detour and switched tasks, the switch isn't aired in the episode.
• In Leg 6, for the first time since its introduction, there was no "location indicator" at the pit stop due to the fact that the pit stop location had to be changed mid-leg.
• While no Roadblock was shown in Leg 7, a Roadblock clue is clearly visible in Joe & Bill's hands in a clip near the middle of the extended episode. This Roadblock involved rowing a rowboat on a reflecting pond outside the palace. It was likely edited out because it did not affect the final placement of teams. Danny checking in with a life-jacket on also proves this point. In Leg 12, Eric mentioned that he had used up all his Roadblocks (6 aired) at this point which means the 6 Roadblock rule is in effect; it can be concluded that of the final 3 teams at the end of this leg, Kandice, Danielle, and Mirna performed this unaired Roadblock from Leg 7.
• At the end of Leg 8, Oswald & Danny and Uchenna & Joyce, as a result of an Intersection and Fast Forward, checked in together, even though ties were abolished after Season 4. They both arrived first, but were told that only one prize would be awarded, and that the teams would have to decide which team got the prize. Oswald & Danny gave it to Uchenna & Joyce, so Uchenna & Joyce won the leg. In seasons up through Season 4, all tied first place teams received a prize; in all subsequent seasons, ties were forbidden and teams arriving at the same time would be split by one minute intervals.
• On Leg 9, having fallen so far behind the other teams and it being an elimination leg, Uchenna & Joyce appeared to be directed to the Pit Stop from their first Route Marker in Malaysia; thus they were shown skipping the Detour and Roadblock. However, according to Uchenna, they had performed all the tasks, but none were aired.
• The roadblock in Leg 11, a jump from Macau Tower's observation deck, is billed as the highest skyjump in the world (233 meters). According to Phil Keoghan, this was the highest jump in The Amazing Race history.
• It was revealed by Mirna that there was an unaired Roadblock in Leg 13 in Hawaii that involved free fall cliff jumping into the ocean.

Post-Race

• CBS announced on February 15, 2007 that eliminated contestants had been videotaped living together in a common house in their sequester location in Acapulco, Mexico with the results edited into a 13-episode series entitled Elimination Station. The series, viewable only in the United States, will be made available on the InnerTube video streaming service on the CBS website, with a new episode debuting immediately following the airing of each new Amazing Race episode in the Pacific time zone this season.
• Eric & Danielle said in their interview on "The Finish Line" on CBS.com that they are no longer dating due to the fact they live too far apart, and are now just friends.

Elimination Station

The first five teams eliminated were sequestered at a villa in Acapulco, Mexico to await the finale. Subsequent eliminated teams telephoned the villa to inform the teams at the villa of their elimination, but continued to run the race as decoys to throw off spoilers to the final outcome of the race.

CBS posted short videos on its website after each episode aired in the Pacific time zone to show the eliminated teams interacting at the villa.

• After Leg 1, John Vito & Jill were eliminated, being sent to the villa first. While there, they were guessing who would be eliminated next. They thought it would either be Charla & Mirna or Kevin & Drew.
• After Leg 2, Kevin & Drew came to the villa next. While there, Kevin, Drew, and John Vito were arguing over what a stoop was. Later, they guessed Charla & Mirna would be eliminated next.
• After Leg 3, David & Mary became the third team to arrive at the villa. David recounted how he was misdirected by several Chilean locals over breakfast. Later, Jill shows David & Mary the master suite they saved for the first married couple. Later, Drew guessed Teri & Ian might be eliminated next.
• After Leg 4, Rob & Amber became the fourth team to arrive at the villa. Rob and Amber were welcomed very nicely. John Vito and Jill even said they were a strong team. Later, they guessed that the next elimination would be Eric & Danielle.
• After Leg 5, the four eliminated teams sat around waiting for another team, only to hear John Vito and Kevin figure out that it must be a non-elimination leg. They spent time on a beach overlook, and back at the villa, Rob dragged Mary into the pool.
• After Leg 6, Teri & Ian became the fifth team to arrive at the villa, where Drew put on a displeased face for the camera. A disgruntled Ian revealed that he believes Oswald & Danny are ruthless racers with no character, saying that when he worked with them in Ushuaia to book flights, they deliberately booked him a different flight and did not confirm it. He said that the same thing happened when Eric & Danielle worked with Oswald and Danny. He also predicted that either Dustin & Kandice or Uchenna & Joyce would win.
• After Leg 7, John Vito and Jill ponder about this non-elimination round. Ian expresses how he and Teri bonded with Joe & Bill and Eric & Danielle as a result of their spending consecutive days together in airports. Amber does tattoos for entertainment.
• After Leg 8, the five eliminated teams get a call from the sixth eliminated team Joe & Bill. The eliminated teams are sad to hear that Joe & Bill were eliminated from the race. Mary asks Joe & Bill who they think should win. Bill says that he would love to see Uchenna & Joyce or Charla & Mirna win. The guests talk about the call the next morning. In a confessional, Kevin and Drew said that since they were so close to the finish line, they would see Joe & Bill where the Race finishes.
• After Leg 9, Uchenna & Joyce called the villa and told the eliminated teams about their flight problem that led to their elimination. The teams at the villa expressed disappointment at Uchenna & Joyce's elimination, and Amber tells them they would meet up at the finish line. Prior to the call, Drew questions why Dustin & Kandice need to participate in the Race when they had already won beauty pageants. Amber takes exception to this, having won Survivor: All-Stars prior to her original season of The Amazing Race.
• After Leg 10, the eliminated teams waited for another team, only to discover that the leg was non-elimination. Amber taught Mary how to swim. Mary overcome the fear of not being able to swim for a long time.
• After Leg 11, the eliminated teams await a phone call from the next eliminated team, but give up after several days without a phone call. John Vito came up with the idea of throwing an awards party to commemmorate the end of their stay at the villa. Each racer drew another racer's name and presented him or her with funny and sometimes touching gifts.
• After Leg 12, the five teams at the villa depart for the unspecified end city in order to cheer the remaining teams as they run to the finish line. At the end city, they reunite with Joe & Bill, Uchenna & Joyce, and newly eliminated Oswald and Danny. Oswald and Danny say they would like to see Charla & Mirna win the race, while some of the other teams reiterate who they would like to see win.
• After Leg 13, the final leg of the The Amazing Race: All-Stars, some of the eliminated teams share their opinions on the winners and the runners-up. The final three admit to their final joys and disappointments.

The Fast Forward was to have each team climb a set of stairs up two different towers (the tower of St. Mary's Basilica and the tower of Town Hall) and count how many stairs there were. They then had to add up the result and tell it to a guard, who would give them a clue directing them to the Pit Stop. The Detour for this leg of the race was Eat It Up or Roll It Out. In Eat It Up, the intersected teams would make their way one and a half miles to an old market.

The Roadblock on this leg of the race was a nod to Malaysia's eco-friendly practice of recycling. Team members had to choose a bicycle with a side cart attached and then scour the neighborhood Taman Sri Hartamas for residents willing to give them their used newspapers.

In Care Package, teams must fill a 500 pound package with various humanitarian aid items for a neighboring island. Once complete, the teams must then board onto a transport plane and participate in an air drop training exercise. Though easier, the mission would take at least half an hour. In Engine Care, teams had to clean an engine pod and associated flap section on the wing of a B-52 bomber until one of the base's sergeants feels the portion of the plane is clean enough. In the Roadblock, teams had to perform a search and rescue mission. Using a GPS receiver, team members have to find a pilot in the Guam forest, receive new GPS co-ordinates from him, locate the landing zone, and signal for a helicopter to pick them up and bring them back to the naval base.

Leg 13 (United States)

• Tamuning, Guam (Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport) to Honolulu, Hawaii (Honolulu International Airport)
• Honolulu (Kamaka Air Hangar (Island of Oahu) @
• Lanai (Kaumalapau Harbor) >Detour (Under or Over)< >Roadblock (Unaired)< (Unaired)
• Lanai (Shipwreck Beach) @
• Honolulu, Hawaii (Honolulu International Airport) to Oakland, California (Oakland International Airport)
• San Francisco (San Francisco's Old Mint) @
• San Francisco (San Francisco Botanical Garden) >Finish Line< (Finish Line)

@ - At the Kamaka Air Hangar, teams must sign in one of three helicopters that will take them to Lanai.
@ - At Shipwreck Beach, teams had to run down a mile of beach and then kayak to a buoy near a WWII ship relic to retrieve their next clue.
@ - At the San Francisco Mint, in the race's final task, one team member answered four questions relating to their opinion of other teams on the race, with the answers corresponding to a four digit code. The other team member then had ten minutes to guess the answers and enter the code into a safe containing the last clue. They could get a head start on the other teams if they finished the Roadblock, but if they failed, teams were still allowed to proceed.

In the Detour for this leg of the race, teams had to choose between Under or Over. In Under, teams had to swim into a cave where their next clue would be anchored to the floor of the cave. In Over, teams had to use a paddle board to reach a buoy that had their next clue. Photos on the official CBS website suggest that the unaired Roadblock involved jumping off a cliff into the water below, as Mirna and Danielle were shown doing this task in the photos. The location of the Roadblock was most likely in Hawaii near the Detour, though the exact location is unknown.
