“We had to stop (the challenge) and get medical care for a few minutes because we are about to develop a thermal strike,” Mike, 28, told, exclusively US weekly On Thursday, April 17, after eliminating it. “We were determined not to stop.”

During the episode, which took place in Bulgaria, Mike and Nick, 32, chose to complete the Woodstack option to challenge the challenge. The brothers struck an obstacle when they were a short kilogram and they had to complete another round of wood delivery. Once this task was completed, they were with foot with Milinda and Erika Papadias To reach the next part of the race.

The teams encountered a role in the rotation, and the mother duo and his daughter decided to choose Nick and Mike, for fear that they would compete for the last position. (No team was aware of that Carson McCalali and Jack DodgeWho were usually at the front of the race, they were lost and were three hours after everyone.)

Nick and Mike had to return and perform the other option to join: Histak challenge. The task requires the difference to search for a hidden bracelet in one of the three -balt of straw. When the husband searched for a small bracelet in a professional straw pile, the weather It had an effect on Nick and Mike.

“When you look at us on the TV and our granted, we kick the straw, it seems that we only give up and love it like kicking the straw. But that was literally all the energy we left in our body,” Mike explained. “The sun was very hot and it was directly above us.”

Nick noted that the hard effort of the Woodstack mission also renewed many of it.

“We just finished carrying 400 pounds of wood and running back and forth three times. So we were really exhausting,” we. “And then – as Mike said – the sun did not help, and the straw was too itching. So it was like the perfect storm of unfortunate events and our energy level is very low.”

Mike and Nick spent a total of six hours in this field in search of a bracelet. At one point, the duo thought of taking the time of time. However, they eventually decided against it because it was an additional “eight hours” in addition to what they already did.

“It was a brilliant thing, like a place between six and eight hours. At this stage, we are like,” well, this is not logical to take it “because we were already hours in this challenge.” we. “Therefore, to add long hours over it it will not have any meaning. So we just said,” We must continue to fight here. “

Nick and Mike did not find the bracelet, nor did they reach the hole. The Phil Keoghan host appeared in the challenge to eliminate the brothers in a “sweet and pass” moment.

“(Phil) was basically a line as he said that he came to get us out of our misery. To be honest with you, Mike did.” We were truly beaten through that sun, through this exhausted straw beyond the measurement. That was a bright point that we can stop now. “

Being in the amazing race was a lifetime dream of Nick and Mike. The husband applied to be in the offer for seven years before his choice Season 37.

“Watching from your interest is one thing, but his experience and livelihood in real life is a complete thing.” So we have come to see the cultures and the way different people live their lives. This was something you can do from your interest, but it is a completely different feeling when you directly face it. “

While they have never started with a million dollar prize, the couple looks at the bright side, where they lived their dream of competing in the race.

“At the beginning, I watched last night, I will not lie, I felt as if I was losing. We felt as if we lost, we gave everything, and it wasn’t good enough. There was a shame associated with him and a lot of negativity. Then I realized, some of that may be true, if you choose to believe that,” Nick thought. “At the same time, you know what is true, we are winners because we have presented everything to the end. We did not give up. We made it on the show seven years of trying and inspiring many people with this alone.”

The amazing race It is broadcast on CBS Wednesday at 9:30 pm East time and is available to broadcast on Paramount+ the next day.
