6th Team Eliminated - 11/9/2008
Best friends Kelly Crabb and Christy Cook are one of the 11 pairs participating in the 13th season of The Amazing Race. Have gone through so much together, they wish to prove that they can overcome anything, and perhaps be the first all-female team to get to the finish line first.
Kelly works as a sales representative, while Christy works as a business development representative for an insurance company. Despite being only both 26 years old, they have gone through quite a lot, having supported one another through their own marriages and, eventually, the divorce of both. The past ten years have seen them work at the same company, remodel homes together and deal with everything life throws at them.
The two are up for the physical bit of the race—during college, Kelly was a dancer, while Christy was a cheerleader. They also believe that their Texas charm will be advantageous to them. Couple that with their resourcefulness and their head-on mindset, and they believe they will win the race. Kelly may be impatient at times, and Christy may be temperamental, but they hope to deal with those and make sure they don’t get lost—after all, neither has traveled extensively outside the United States.
