FIRST LEG
The debut season of The Amazing Race Teen Edition started off at the Sri Melur Restaurant where host Yongming signaled the start of the race. Then, the teams immediately read their starting clue, discovering that they had to head to Mc’ Donalds which was situated across the street.
Without any hesitation, all teams ran to Mc’ Donalds in hopes to find their next clue. Wan Jun & Eng Khim got off with an early head start while the rest of the teams trying to catch up from behind. Wan Jun & Eng Khim was the first team to receive their next clue directing them to the bridge which connects SS18 & SS19. Followed closely behind were Matthew & Ryan, Marissa & Zheng Yi, Natalie & Jo Ann and lastly Sheng Ling & Yew Han. It was a 5 way footrace to the bridge. Teams Wan Jun & Eng Khim, Matthew & Ryan and Marissa & Zheng Yi were the first three teams to claim their clue at the bridge, followed by Sheng Ling & Yew Han and lastly Natalie & Jo Ann. Upon reading the clue given, teams were shocked to discover a Detour. A Detour is a choice between two tasks. In this Detour, teams have to choose either to search the clue around the nearest playground or along the Subang Utama High School area. The teams could obviously be seen breaking off from one another. Wan Jun & Eng Khim, Marissa & Zheng Yi and Sheng Ling & Yew Han opted to head to the nearest playground whereas Matthew & Ryan and Natalie & Jo Ann chose to find along the Subang Utama High School area. Wan Jun & Eng Khim kept their lead as they were the first team to complete the Detour. Meanwhile, Natalie & Jo Ann had fewer difficulties in finding for the clue at the Subang Utama High School enabling them to gain some lead against the other 3 teams. Sheng Ling & Yew Han and Marissa & Zheng Yi were few minutes behind. Unfortunately for team Matthew & Ryan, they went through a hard time spotting the clue which resulted them to fall at the back of the pack. After completing the Detour, teams were told to claim their next clue behind the pet shop in SS19/6. Wan Jun & Eng Khim stormed ahead and excitedly received the clue behind the pet shop. They learned that their next clue will be hidden in front of the Cambridge tuition center. Followed closely behind were team Natalie & Jo Ann and Sheng Ling & Yew Han. Marissa & Zheng Yi were unable to find for the pet shop allowing team Matthew & Ryan to overtake them. In the lead of the pier, Wan Jun & Eng Khim retrieved their clue informing them to head to the nearest optical shop. Natalie & Jo Ann was the second team to arrive at the Cambridge tuition centre followed by Sheng Ling & Yew Han, Matthew & Ryan and lastly Marissa & Zheng Yi. Once at Cambridge, Matthew & Ryan were shocked to know that they have been yielded by Sheng Ling & Yew Han. Despite the yield, Matthew & Ryan were still ahead of Marissa & Zheng Yi, who were currently at last place. At the optical shop, lead teams, Wan Jun & Eng Khim and Natalie & Jo Ann happily read their next clue directing them to the Pit Stop which was the SS18-SS19 Bridge. As the two teams head to the bridge, Matthew & Ryan were just about to claim their clue at the optical shop. Surprisingly, Sheng Ling & Yew Han failed to spot for the optical shop which was just opposite the Cambridge tuition center. This has enabled Marissa & Zheng Yi to get out of last place. To their way to the Pit Stop, Wan Jun & Eng Khim kept their tempo rendering them a first place finish while Natalie & Jo Ann came in second. There was another footrace battle between Matthew & Ryan and Marissa & Zheng Yi to the Pit Stop. Matthew & Ryan had the lead but were outrun by Marissa & Zheng Yi resulting them to take forth. However, it was the unfortunate team Sheng Ling & Yew Han who was the last team to check in the Pit Stop. Sheng Ling & Yew Han was the first team ever to be eliminated from The Amazing Race Teen Edition.
SECOND LEG
After a mandatory rest period allowing
teams to eat and mingle, Wan Jun & Eng Khim departed the Pit Stop in first
at 2:04pm. Opening their clue, the pair discovered a Detour. In this
Detour, teams have to make a decision whether to play a game of tic-tac-toe in
Mc’ Donalds or to search for shapes of a star at 5 different shops along the
Mc’
After the demise of Matthew & Ryan in the Race, three teams remain. Who be the first ever winner of The Amazing Race Teen Edition?
THIRD LEGThe third leg of The Amazing Race Teen Edition Season 1 started at the SS19-USJ13 Bridge. Departing the Pit Stop in first place, Wan Jun and Eng Khim read their clue instructing them to the biggest drain in SS19/6. Leaving few seconds later, Natalie & Jo Ann and Marissa & Zheng Yi followed the lead team in the search for the drain. All 3 teams competitively raced to the drain and read their next clue. They were requested to find Yongming, the host at the playground near the block of flats. Marissa & Zheng Yi was the first team to arrive followed by Wan Jun & Eng Khim and lastly Natalie & Jo Ann. All three teams were shocked to find out that this leg was not over. Teams were told to search for an unused bus stop where the clue awaits them. However, it started raining while the teams were searching for the correct bus stop. This has caused Wan Jun & Eng Khim to head back home without checking in the Pit Stop. Despite the rain, teams Natalie & Jo Ann and Marissa & Zheng Yi continued their hunt for the bus stop. Natalie & Jo Ann accidentally bumped onto the Pit Stop and checked in without completing the Race. It was Marissa & Zheng Yi who fought the rain and claimed their clue at the bus stop directing them to Hock Hin Restaurant, Pit Stop for this leg of the race.
Team Marissa & Zheng Yi was the only team to complete the entire Race rendering them as the winners of The Amazing Race Season 1. Meanwhile, Natalie & Jo Ann were placed second whereas Wan Jun & Eng Khim in third place for not checking in the Pit Stop.
