In the next few days, their post-elimination interviews will be up on RTW, RNO, TV Guide.com, et al.

I'm curious to find out what pre-Race preparations, if any, they did and how many previous seasons of the Race they watched. I would have thought Mika would have, once the application was sent to CBS, worked on conquering her fears of heights and water.

She could have done some things like go to the top floor of the tallest building where she lives and go out onto the roof (if possible), go to a climbing gym and take climbing lessons, take an adult swimming class at the Y, travel to Pigeon Forge and ride the tallest roller coaster at Dollywood and (if she completed the swimming classes) ride down the tallest water slide at a neighboring water park, etc.

If Mika had taken the time to conquer her fears before the Race started, she and Canaan would have been in the Final 6 and the Globetrotters would have gone to Elimination Station instead.
