Recap | The Amazing Race Australia: Celebrity Edition on 10 (15 September) – A Cyclone Hits The Inca Trail. Cyrell Paule and Eden Dally Eliminated From The Amazing Race Australia: Celebrity Edition.
The third leg of The Amazing Race Australia: Celebrity Edition saw teams making their way across northwest Argentina, literally and figuratively mudslinging but it was sadly time to farewell ‘Cyclone’ Cyrell Paule and Eden Dally.
Cyrell said, “As soon as we saw our competitors we were like, alright this is not going to be as easy as we thought. We knew we had a challenge there. Some we were like, ‘nah we got them covered’ but they ended up beating us, so never underestimate your opponents.”
Eden added, “We really tried, we gave it a go and kept coming second-last, second-last, then we came last! We were gutted. We really wanted to win for our charity, and we wanted them to get that money. We were devastated about it.”
The teams first had to mould 18 adobe bricks, made from mud mixed with water and straw, which was surprisingly physically taxing and extremely dirty work.
Teams then faced a Detour, a choice between two challenges each with their own pros and cons. In Walk like an Incan, teams would hike to the top of a mountain, fill a traditional Aguayo blanket with goods and carry them back down securely on their backs.
In Dress like an Incan, teams had to head to a busy market and find wish-fulfilment Ekeko dolls where they had to tie miniature items to it to bring prosperity and abundance.
With the hike being one of the most physically demanding challenges of the race so far, and the dolls proving to be a test of patience and attention to detail, there were a lot of emotions at high altitude.
Finally, teams faced a Road Block where one member of each team had to dress a llama and take it on its daily walk, which may sound simple but the stubborn, spitting species didn’t make it easy on our celebs.
Cyrell explained, “Most people think a llama is a cute, cuddly creature. I must have gotten an evil llama. I was calling it racist because it did not like me! The other teams were ahead of us so they could select their llamas. I had no choice! They left me with the devil!”
With Cyrell once again having to overcome her distain for animals, she and Eden were the last team to head to the Pit Stop and find Beau at the mat, meaning they were our fourth team to be eliminated.
Cyrell and Eden were competing on behalf of Bravehearts, an organisation dedicated to the prevention and treatment of child sexual abuse.
Eden said,
“When we heard their stories and what that amazing charity does for these kids, we really wanted to make a statement for them and hopefully contribute some help by winning that prize money.”
Cyrell said,
“We really wanted to win this for our charity but, at the same time, it was great to raise awareness for them and for people to know that there is help that they can get and where they can go to.”
