Jenna: It worked-I think people definitely did recognize us. I was like, "I need the curly hair back or no one's gonna know who the hell I am," so I was taking Rogaine, vitamin E and stuff to get the curly hair back. Were you recognized as well? Ethan: Because it was so soon after the cancer thing, I was in a mad rush to grow out my hair so people could recognize us more on the race. When Survivor stars Rob and Amber competed on TAR (twice) their public recognition around the world gave them an advantage. Jenna: I, on the other hand, would like to go back on so I can win again. Don't get me wrong, I love the game, but I don't think I'm cut out for it anymore-I'm too nice. Would you guys be interested in doing Survivor again? Ethan: I don't think I would because I think the game of Survivor has changed a little bit. So how everyone manages that is something you're gonna have to wait and find out. And we didn't argue like people think or as I was worried about we did kind of balance each other out and I was happy about that-and so was my dad.Įthan: Basically, being lost, hungry, late in a foreign country where you can't speak the language is like one of my worst fears in life. I realized that Ethan doesn't like taxi cabs. How did the race affect your relationship? Jenna: A lot of people ask us that, and I think my dad's only request was "Do not get in an argument on national TV." I was like, "Dad, I can't promise that." Actually it was fine. And so for me it was like a reward, a celebration of life for Jenna and I, and we got to do it together. You can go out there and you can travel the world, and you can push yourself and you can have fun, you can smile. You know you can get through this and you can live a happy normal life.


No-this is an opportunity for me to prove to the world that there's life after cancer. Ethan, congrats on running the New York Marathon! Are your doctors at all concerned about your strenuous activities? The Amazing Race can take a huge toll on its contestants.
