Soul Surfer, Bethany Hamilton, recently completed “The Amazing Race” with her husband, Adam Dirks. According to Joyce Eng of TV Guide, the mistake that Hamilton and Dirks made in the final leg of the show could have been related to selecting who would do the Roadblocks.

Hamilton noted that it was an “incredible” experience to travel around the world and said that “third place isn’t so bad.” She explained how the couple kept going in the race. Hamilton added that the couple was “proud of how we handled it from start to finish,” noting that as a team, “we supported each other the same we do in real life.”
