Terence Gerchberg and Sarah Leshner are one of the 11 couples who will compete for $1 million in the CBS reality TV show, The Amazing Race, which premiers Sunday, September 28th.
According to cbs.com, the two have been a pair for almost a year and are quite the example of opposites attract. Sarah is an MBA holding financial analyst on Wall Street while Terence is a running coach who sells real estate on the side to make some extra dough. Sarah is low maintenance, while Terence is emotional. It’s a good thing this is The Amazing Race and not Survivor as Terence wouldn’t be too found of eating roasted rats. Sarah eats meat, but keeps kosher, Terence doesn’t eat any meat at all.
The Amazing Race pairs people who already have an existing relationship and sends them around the world via various modes of transportation to hunt for clues about their next destination. It’s literally a “race” to get there before the other couple does to avoid the risk of elimination. This is done in addition to performing various tasks that are often culturally related to the country they’re visiting. This season’s show was filmed last spring and contestants traveled 30,000 miles across five continents in 23 days, making stops in cities like Cambodia and Kazakhstan.
