Coming back for a third time. I really hope we can be a force to be reckoned with. That will take lots of patience and discipline. I'm also running this race for Breast Cancer Awareness and the Drive Pink Initiative (#DrivePink) from AutoNation.
Who do you think will be your biggest competition: Racers, Houseguests, or Castaways?
Clearly, the biggest threats will be past Racers. Just simply because of the experience. Having been on the Race before definitely helps you prepare mentally and physically.
