Newfoundlanders and Labradorians will be watching with great interest as the season finale of Amazing Race Canada airs tonight.
Colin Rose and Matt Roberts of Mount Pearl have made it to the final leg with a grand prize of $250,000 up for grabs.
Roberts says getting to compete was almost as difficult as the race itself, having gone through the application process ten times before finally being selected.
“We were speechless,” says Roberts, “it was, you know, ten years in the making, so to finally get that call was surreal.”
Rose says being life-long friends helped them navigate the challenges in the race.
“You want to be racing with someone that you know…can even you out, and we balance each other out really well.”
Rose and Roberts won’t say how they did. The season finale airs this evening at 8:30 Newfoundland time on CTV.
