Upon landing in Bogota, the teams head to the Nemocon Salt Mine. Here, they must search for hourglasses that will allow them to manipulate the race by forcing another team to delay their departure. Additionally, the teams must sign up for a specific time to leave the next morning.
Challenges and Alliances in the Salt Mine
As the teams descend into the mine, equipped with hard hats and head lamps, the tension rises. Each team scours the mine for hourglasses, hoping to secure an advantage in the race. The Married Parents and the Boyfriends are successful in finding hourglasses and sign up for the earlier departure time at 6 a.m.
A Race Above Ground
The next morning, the teams face a new challenge at Templo Parroquial San Francisco de Asis. Here, they must climb the bell tower and retrieve a piece of “pre-Colombian art” or an emerald. After completing this task, the teams take taxis back to a plaza and university in Bogota.

As the teams struggle to find their way and hand over their treasures, some face setbacks with lost or unreliable taxi drivers. Team NFL, the first to arrive at the circus school, has the opportunity to use their hourglass to yield another team but chooses not to. Meanwhile, teams must decorate work trucks, unaware that they need to connect the plastic horns under the bumper—a detail that some teams fail to notice, causing delays and frustration.
The Finish Line
After overcoming their respective challenges, the teams make their way to Parque Nacional, the final destination for this leg of the race. The Married Parents arrive first, followed by Team NFL. The Beards, Smart Siblings, and Asian Cajuns also secure their positions in the race. Unfortunately, Team Olympians finish last and are eliminated.
