been watching old seasons of Amazing Race and I've particularly like this old couple Meredith & Gretchen. They were the first couple their age to make it furthest in the show - up till Leg 10 of the race. They didn't make it to the finale.

They are a real sweet couple. And being on Amazing Race at the age of 60+... its quite a disadvantage. You run slower and there are certain tasks that require certain amt of strength which are really... harder for them. But even though sometimes they were at the end of the pack, they pushed on and persevered. And they rarely quarrel nor lose their temper at each other under the pressure of the game. which happened quite alot to other pairs on the race.

What amazed me even more was googling them on the Internet and finding out that... they were only married for slightly less than 5 yrs when they were on the show! Not the decades old of marriage I thought them to share. which is incredible... the chemistry and love that they have for each other..!

that would be sth I like when I grow old... wouldn't you? (:
