00:00this is the first time I've seen the Pacific Ocean amazing it's like paradise isn't it is
00:16gorgeous look at the waves coming over the rocks Wow I was dreaming of it I was actually just sat
00:26in a pool of my own sweat a sleepy beach town in western El Salvador El Zonte a haven for surfers
00:36chasing warm water swells what do you think of the spot it's absolutely incredible it's stunning
00:43this coastal landscape is defined by the rugged cliffs that shape the shoreline carved over millions
00:51of years by the power of the Pacific Ocean and intense volcanic activity it's Molly not well
01:00do you know what it must have been something she's eating or something no yeah send her our love I
01:06hope she gets better quickly thank you guys I've said Molly's ill actually she's revising the route
01:10all right that's what she's doing in the room oh this is nice isn't it nice after Guatemala yeah
01:18man that was tough some things there's nothing you can do bus breaks down there's roadblocks if you
01:24can't do something out there why worry because you can't do anything about it I love that I won't lie
01:28to you it was interesting to see that we had made up some ground on you because we were worried that
01:33they were going to start having two different races the three of us and then just you on your
01:38own while race positions remain unchanged the 23-hour lead for Anita and Bal has reduced to just three
01:45and a half hours it's time that we take those those front runner positions definitely I think you guys
01:51nip up to second we'll take that oh is it is that how it's not first then oh with two legs completed
02:04Roman and Harley Moon have the healthiest looking budget whilst Molly and Tyler hold the least money I
02:10think anything that helps the budget will be a priority going into this leg maybe pick up some
02:16work along the way keeping it cheap and prove to ourselves that we can be better than third place
02:20now you're doing the budgeting for this yeah I'm the banker what's the what's the secrets I'm not
02:26telling you he's a Yorkshire man and a Punjabi he never spends anything now it feels like all right
02:36here we go again I've got butterflies at the moment hi how you doing just for you guys thank you very much
02:59your third checkpoint is valley the angels Angeles the valley of the angels yep very good I hope they
03:10on our side okay map let's do it right Hawkeye let's get in there value angels valid angels I found it there you
03:25go we're going to Honduras baby marking the halfway point for the race Valley de Angeles Honduras the
03:38most mountainous country in Central America seated within this alpine terrain it's a former 16th century
03:46mining town and now a popular weekend getaway from the capital to reach this third checkpoint teams will
03:54continue their journey through El Salvador known as the land of volcanoes with over 20 forming the
04:00country's spine having suffered a devastating 12-year civil war followed by a rise in gang violence a
04:07recent government crackdown means El Salvador has become safer for tourists who travel after dark is
04:13still widely discouraged and rarely exists this looks good to me conchagua volcano I've never been on top of a
04:23volcano for a start it's my most favorite thing in the world to wake up in a foreign country sunrise over a
04:30unique landscape it's when I feel at my most calm it's on the road as well and it's on the right
04:35direction let's go for it yeah yeah I feel like we've had this amazing trip but it's been very to do do
04:42cluster and also my life is intense honestly dad I really want to just have a bit of peace and quiet I've
04:51worked since I was 14 like I've just worked all the time even when I was at uni I had three jobs and it's
04:57taken a lot to kind of get to this point but actually now I feel at 47 quite nice to like lower
05:03the frequency a little bit camping on top of a volcano that is a bit of me all right
05:09just get me there let's go taking advantage of the early start the pair aim to travel 185 kilometers to reach
05:18San Miguel just shy of conchagua volcano okay she said no don't know maybe half an hour leaving El
05:30Zonte travel timetables are elusive if there's a nice big juicy looking vehicle I might flag it down
05:36that teams must journey like locals hailing oncoming transport or hitching in daylight in the hope of a
05:42free ride well there's a bus there's a bus behind it there's two buses one coming behind it
05:51dad grab that bus grab that bus ask him as well there's a bus there ask grab it grab it
05:57leave your bag that might just grab the bus okay I'll ask it let's go to San Salvador see okay
06:05one moment please no okay no no what was that one going he's not waiting please wait wait wait wait
06:23that was the bus how did he just drive off I just got off and then he drove off because we were dilly
06:30darling I was on it I was on the bus oh yeah yeah okay I'm gonna either flag down a bus or flag down
06:39somebody let's go all right Honduras here we come which way next to leave three hours and 35 minutes
06:52after the leaders siblings Roman and Harley Moon we've got to make up that time because Anita and
06:58Bao they're already on their way I really don't want them to be fair
07:01they're gonna get the hat trick ball please please please here we go
07:08hola are you going to San Salvador hello yeah
07:12muchas gracias you're a lifesaver you really are thank you let's go daddy oh could be strategically
07:19quite good to be close to a border surely yeah so we get to Honduras as quickly as possible and you've
07:24got the option of the union which can take you up to the capital that's close to valley de angeles
07:29we could be the first ones in Honduras to leave el salvador teams could depart by sea
07:34from the port of la union although they can cover good distance by boat they must surrender themselves
07:40to the timing of the tide alternatively they could enter honduras via the main land border crossing
07:47el amatillo a spot that is well connected but often congested since we've been in el zonte it's obvious
07:54that you know there's a lot more tourists a lot more people that speak english sticking by the coast
07:58the route looks it looks so easy clear yeah let's hug the coast then going on the main touristy
08:04track we've got more chance of running into people that can help us i'm happy if you're happy are you
08:09happy i don't know but something's just telling me if we could be the first ones into honduras it could
08:15be good yeah okay how could you do it baby just see how far down we can get before it gets dark oh a
08:23bus stop it must stop hopefully all buses lead to honduras yeah i think this is up okay let's go
08:30the siblings plan to bus hop through the region of surf city to reach la union and enter honduras by sea
08:37where are we going i don't actually know what do you mean we jumped on the first bus we could find
08:46we don't know if it's going in the right direction it's going inland and that doesn't feel right
08:53uh what you're finding on the signature oh you can speak english sure we're trying to hug the coastline
08:58as much as possible to get to our union is it possible you're sure but you are here right so
09:04we're not going along the coast okay
09:10holly i think get off okay to avoid heading inland the siblings hop off
09:14i mean 11 kilometers away from the checkpoint all right we have not moved very far i hope it's not a bad omen
09:21let's do this my nana always used to say a bit of sea that makes you feel better
09:32setting off almost four hours after the race leaders the two remaining teams
09:41molly and tyler with a four minute lead on their fellow stragglers oh man you got this baby
09:47i feel the worst i've felt in a long time it has been a rough 24 hours i don't know if we ate
09:55something dodgy but we got a bit of food poisoning i'm not feeling sick anymore but ty's been ill today
10:03so we just got to take it easy and i just want us to get moving right valley de anguilis where do you
10:12think it is sorry you need to carry on for a second my throat okay yeah haven't eaten can't eat can't keep it down
10:26molly's absolutely gonna need to carry the both of us because i don't know what i've got to offer
10:31aside from carrying my own backpack at this moment i feel sick now let's go to san salvador we know it's
10:37a good transport hub and then we'll work out a plan all right yeah yeah it will be all right okay
10:46found it you found it right there it's in honduras well done dylan perfect
10:54the coastal routes i am a bit worried about being on boats
10:58get seasick let's go inland again then yeah it's more north that checkpoint whereas if we're going south
11:04it might be a bit tougher to get up it does it more direct we want to we want to get ahead of some
11:08people so this looks like the quickest route to me yeah also maybe we can try and find something that
11:14we could just share together and experience together yeah and that would be special yeah it'd be nice to
11:20go to an actual beautiful town so suji toto is here it's on the water isn't it near the water that sounds
11:26fun okay okay let's try and find a bus he's off again my son quick march dylan and jackie plan to use
11:38the capital for quick onward connections north to suji toto in the mountainous heartland
11:44oh there's a bus might not be the white one it might not be the white one it says san salvador there
11:52on the bottom right really good that one on the road yeah we need to catch up with everyone

13:32that's the checkpoint over there we could have walked could have just walked really beautiful here
13:38what are you smiling at him for i don't know just distracted you were like oh
13:44everyone here is outrageously good looking yeah can you do the rest of the race on your own
13:54i don't know how you do it sometimes you know we're in this race you're trying to find somewhere
13:57to stay and you're still able to just go oh look we're on holiday oh there's some fit guys or
14:03something like that i just feel like life is so short and i want to know that i've really enjoyed it
14:10and i do try to actively be happy i do get jealous of that you know you feel it's a choice that you
14:18feel happy because i always think like you were born with like a happy level that's here
14:25and my ceiling was like here you know even with my tablets i can't fully
14:31get there do you know what i mean i've been on antidepressants for for uh over 15 years
14:40for me they help definitely you know for some people it's therapy for some people it's just
14:46going down to the pub and having a pint with their mates like that can be their thing it's not
14:50one shoe fits all i've been through some horrible times but i've made the decision now to to come off
14:57them um because i feel like i'm in a good place in life now that i'm at a point where i've stopped
15:04taking the antidepressants it's trying to discover what my actual emotions are and don't get me wrong
15:11they really helped me through a really bad part of my life yeah but i've not known since i was 15
15:18who i am do you know what i mean like what what makes me sad or what makes me
15:23emotional or what makes me happy yeah but i i'm finding it hard i'm discovering like panic attacks
15:32again or like anxiety attacks like doing something like this for me is such a test of
15:39how i'm going to react emotionally prior to this trip i guess i just thought
15:49you were just a bit of a worrier for the sake of worrying
15:54i know i know and i know it's only been a couple of weeks but i do feel like
16:00i'm really getting to understand you better i do massively appreciate that you've been much more
16:07understanding of my thought process yeah because i know it can be confusing we just haven't spent this
16:14much time together yeah thank you have a safe trip thank you so much having hitched a free ride molly
16:28and tyler are halfway to the capital and planning to restrict expenditure with some creative tactics
16:36is that either available or not right yeah so green's available but how do we pay please connect
16:46three hours 11.99 hour additional 4.99 and there's a condom
16:55that's good i now suddenly don't want to stay on this bed wait there's a music button
17:00are you killing me
17:08babe don't even get i'll throw up on you i promise you now i feel like death
17:14just grateful that we've got a bed to rest in tonight molly's doing a phenomenal job and looking
17:18after me but i can't make decisions so it's not an ideal situation considering how close the teams are
17:25on the leaderboard right now at least like you've got a little bit of vomit around your mouth or you
17:30need to blow your nose there's a tissue dispenser right on us
17:50hey happy dog honduras today hoi induras honduras and a nice coffee
17:56having traveled only 11 kilometers this leg roman and harley moon are making an early start aiming for
18:05the port of la union to get to honduras as quickly as possible
18:11oh don't lift that one and now we wait
18:17dad i'm like a kid on christmas day whilst anita and bal are more than halfway across el
18:23salvador on their way to conchadwa volcano i'm really looking forward because i've never been
18:27on a volcano have you ever slept in a tent never i've slept in somebody's garage a little bit tipsy
18:33then i didn't know where i was
18:38start to come out the city a bit more now
18:42130 kilometers behind them and leaving san salvador dylan and jackie are heading for the mountains of
18:49cordillera del balsamo seeking a taste of tradition i want to try one of those rapuses oh yeah yeah
18:55yeah it's meant to be a local el salvadorian dish sounds good okay
19:04finally reaching the capital molly and tyler need to plan their next move
19:10let's get the map out because last night we were in no state to make a plan no still don't feel 100
19:16percent i can't lie about like going long distance it's a bit treacherous like one of
19:21things like this i understand so i feel like if we rest up today taking a bit of san salvador then
19:28when we feel 100 we can absolutely just go for the checkpoint where's it yeah fine today is my day to
19:35make some decisions for the both of us and yeah just lead us in the right direction feels like a little
19:42pressure today there is a lake called lake ilopango yeah just outside of san salvador i feel like i'm
19:52quite a confident person on like the surface but deep down i have a lot of doubt and that comes in
19:59when i'm making decisions because you don't want to make the wrong one that sounds the perfect plan of
20:06what i need right now let's go let's go i definitely think it's because i started in this industry so
20:13young that all my decisions were always discussed with management my parents i wasn't allowed to be
20:20independent i was always very like sheltered before this one it's too packed there's no seats i'm going
20:26to make an executive decision that the buses that come through here are all going to be too full
20:32maybe we should just get cabs okay let's just do it i'll back it all right we just need to negotiate
20:38the price i just want to be able to like trust my gut and my instincts a little bit more excuse me
20:44i don't know i've only got 10. i don't i can't do this stuff i don't like it we'll just swallow it and we'll take it 15.
21:0115. why'd you why'd you back out on my tail i don't know i've only got 10. i don't i can't do this stuff
21:10i don't like it we'll just swallow it and we'll take it 15. quince quince quince yeah gracias
21:20right you ready i'm not mad at you babe
21:24i'm sorry for biting i appreciate you looking after me okay
21:39195 kilometers to the east wow you are not kidding me the volcano of conchagua
21:50a name taken from the indigenous lenka people meaning flying jaguar
21:58formed by two stratovolcanoes the summit soars to over 1200 meters offering unparalleled views of
22:06the bay of fonseca on the pacific ocean this doesn't look real it doesn't it looks like a painting it's
22:12one of those moments when you're like am i actually here surrounded by a coastal forest home to numerous
22:19exotic avian species including el salvador's national bird the mot mot what a place to say
22:28you did your first camping experience there's a door here but how do you get into the door under the
22:33zip here i want some planks at the moment i think i need a mattress but i tell you something a view from
22:40here it's amazing
22:45and i hope it doesn't take off oh my god you look like a boy scout dad oh yes with a boggle
22:52very old boy scout king gang golly golly ging gang goo this is magnificent isn't it i feel quite at
23:03peace up here but when it's time to move i cannot explain how my brain works it just goes into okay
23:11let's figure out how we get from a to b and just make it happen i do the same sort of thing i'm always
23:16thinking two steps ahead yeah same the way you brought us up there was no time for rest
23:23it was like get up do get up and do something don't waste the day it's a mindset it's a mindset and
23:31part of me is like that because i've seen you and mum work really hard we're an immigrant community
23:36that we came here with nothing yeah weren't you one of the first indian families in bradford
23:43in your back-to-back house and your cobbled street cobbled street and tin bath yeah i mean
23:47my granddad how much money did he have when he came from india nothing that was like 1950s and
23:53couldn't speak in english yeah and also you worked really hard well we wanted to be better than us
23:58and not struggle as hard as we did and have a better life yeah i grew up in a very aspirational
24:05household one thing i was given by my parents is that i was just made to believe that i could achieve
24:10anything but also there is this huge expectation that if you're going to do something you better
24:14do it to the best of your ability there was a lot of expectation to not let everyone down and i guess
24:19everything about me is about showing that actually i am fully capable but yeah that gets exhausting
24:29i feel like i'm in a race with myself yeah it's just a constant race what's the end goal exactly i feel
24:36like i've never really known what the end goal is other than just keep going and i think there's
24:40more to me than just someone who wants to achieve maybe be more compassionate towards myself and
24:46that's it we know how hard you've worked to get to where you are yeah and we're proud of that thanks
24:51dad nice chat yeah well i know we haven't chatted like this for ages ever yeah do you know what's
24:59gonna do it that sunrise tomorrow morning yeah wow oh my days oh miles is perfect also in pursuit of
25:15some respite from the race molly and tyler are just outside the capital at lake elopango this is
25:22um real i've never seen anything like it a vast volcanic caldera with a depth of more than 230 meters
25:35i just can't get over the fact this is in the middle of a volcano it was formed over 1500 years
25:40ago by the tierra blanca hoven eruption which blanketed the whole of central america in ash
25:46are you feeling better after yesterday yeah i feel like this is the better piece we needed
25:51with their strength returning buenos dias they spot a chance to ease their money worries
25:57these boats need cleaning right yeah do you put our flip-flops on yeah that makes sense
26:04i reckon we do all high surfaces first and then we'll do the floor after yeah sounds like we're in our
26:10kitchen miles i can't lie i think you've absolutely smashed this choosing to come here when we're not
26:17really feeling 100 it's the best thing that we could have done i know today didn't see like a big
26:24decision but it's just like i don't want to ever be the reason we're not progressing or something yeah
26:30if you were to make a decision yeah and we don't progress in the race what like the world's not ending
26:34yeah i know even earlier when we were bartering for that taxi the knock-on that scares me it's like
26:44we could have had five more dollars for our budget that now we don't have and then i think oh no does
26:50that mean we won't eat as well today or or will we not be able to get anywhere else today you know
26:56it's just my i just spiral yeah i don't want to let anyone down you could never let me down i guess
27:03making the wrong decision in a place that's so public is really exaggerated like it's blown off
27:09yeah i know that this industry is so like cutthroat and so if i make the wrong decision
27:17you can lose it all in a heartbeat and i feel like that definitely plays on my mind all the time
27:23i always feel a little bit like you know an imposter and like i don't know i just feel like
27:31is it all down to luck and actually i don't think so i don't think so i think that you decided to
27:37carry on pursuing a career and doing the things that you want to do you decided to go for an
27:42audition and start acting i think my fear comes from the fact that i've been handed such an amazing card
27:50to be able to like live a dream career from so young that you feel like
27:58surely this is gonna run out soon this luck
28:04also though think about how many good decisions you've made in your lifetime compared to the bad
28:09decision true you completely like the balancing scales are outweighed entirely you've made some
28:14wicked decisions since we've been out i'm proud of you thank you what's great about the race is that
28:21you can see when a decision pays off and when it doesn't and i think that's quite reassuring i feel
28:26like i'm growing with the race look at that that is cleanest boat in the whole of el salvador
28:41just woke up from being half asleep and thought are we going all the way to la union for a boat and
28:47we don't even know the boat timetables having traveled for over eight hours across the country
28:52roman and harley moon are approaching the transport hub of san miguel where the road forks south to
28:58the port of la union the ferry departure point for honduras or north to el amatillo the main land border
29:06crossing someone then wondering if we get out of san miguel and head to el amatillo and to try and
29:12cross the border today is this san miguel yeah i think we should do it okay jump out yeah
29:17in the midst of anxiety we have jumped off the bus roman was feeling like we should get off and we
29:27can find 10 minutes to regroup feel very special it was a decision of let's stop and reassess because
29:35there's a fork in the road that goes to to this border or to la union and in a panic i just kind of
29:44said right let's just get to that four and figure out which one we're going to take how long from here
29:50to la union like one hour one hour and at la union one time for honduras one hour on the boat
30:07i'm sorry to pull us off yeah if i thought we were going to cross the border in the north i'd say
30:14yeah but the fact that i don't know if we will what by sundown yeah i just don't think we will
30:19your gut's telling you the union i i'll go with you yeah yeah i'll go with you worst case scenario
30:25if tomorrow there's no boat we might be able to jump in another bus that takes us yeah yeah yeah
30:30let's do it right let's start again okay so we're back on the same route
30:38this whole race is such a game of have i made the right choice
30:41and unfortunately i'm not a very good choice maker
30:45the hardest thing is realizing that you are going to have to stop and go to bed you know you just
30:50want to be there now but it's that thing of being okay with the fact that we're going to stay in the
30:55union tonight but we're going to do everything we can to get away from there as quickly as possible
31:01tomorrow
31:07nestled in the northern highlands overlooking the lempa river suchi toto
31:13an ancient aztec word meaning the place of flowers and birds sweet town isn't it really pretty
31:20deeply scarred from its days as a battleground in the civil war the city used to sit close to the
31:25guerrilla groups fighting the government in the surrounding jungle dylan
31:31today it's a more tranquil town drawing visitors to its colonial architecture and vibrant markets
31:39look all the different herbs and spices look at the cinnamon here dylan how long it is oh wow
31:44i use cinnamon sticks in our christmas pudding ice cream oh yeah that's so nice yeah with ginger biscuits
31:50and raisins and cream i fancy some of that now don't you oh big time no cooked chocolate cake that's
31:56a good one i won a gold medal for my bait well tart in the village pretty cool
32:03oh this is just what we need yeah it really is love for me came straight away with dylan and i just
32:10adored him straight away he was cheeky up to mischief all the time with bows and arrows and water pistols
32:18ah pupusas pupcusa pupusa he brought a lot of laughter whoo
32:28up until dylan was 25 and left home i knew him really well but i think in the past
32:35eight years he leads a different life gracias are you feeling hungry i am pretty hungry maybe
32:43Maybe a nice spot for the sunset.
32:46Sometimes days can drift by and I don't hear from you
32:48and you just leave voice notes.
32:50Yeah, sorry about that.
32:52Yeah, yeah.
32:54I'm looking forward to visiting you in your new home
32:58and you cooking me a nice meal.
33:01This is maybe motivating me to get stuck in on some cooking.
33:05Hopefully I don't burn it.
33:09Isn't it lovely to share this moment together?
33:11Yeah, it's been beautiful, really.

33:16We don't.
33:16At home.
33:20Try and do a selfie.
33:21OK. I'm useless at selfies, so you better do it.
33:24OK.
33:25I think with this journey, I'm going to get to know you as an adult.
33:28Is it all right?
33:29That's horrible.
33:32I'm going to try this.
33:35Sharing and Dylan's life is very special
33:38and I love him to bits.
33:41I don't think one has enough moments
33:45where you can just sit quietly in life.
33:48It is quiet, isn't it?
33:49Yeah.
33:53Love you.
33:55Love you too.
33:55Morning.
34:13Morning. Wow.
34:24That's how you do some press-ups. Top of a volcano.
34:29Dad, well done.
34:30You breathe in. Up, down.
34:34And then you step up and do another breathe in a little bit.
34:37And then exhale.
34:38I've been very chill up here. It might take me a minute to gear up again.
34:46Anita and Bal are still 220 kilometres from the checkpoint
34:49and need to plot their exit strategy from El Salvador.
34:53Today. We're back. Back in... Let's get to where we need to be.
34:57To the border. So we're going to Lamotillo by road.
35:01Depending on how far the checkpoint is, because it looks near on the map,
35:04but we don't know what the journey is. If we can get there today...
35:08That's fantastic. Do your...
35:10No, this is me. This is me.
35:13Is there a moving bus? I'm going to catch that bus.
35:20Is there a moving truck? I'm going to catch that truck.
35:23Basically, get back into race mode.
35:28There isn't any way to look cool in a light vest.
35:31It's not quite the James Bond experience looking like this.
35:33Having prioritised leaving El Salvador quickly,
35:38Roman and Harley Moon are the first team to enter Honduras.
35:43This is what it's all about.
35:47Yesterday there was a lot of anxiety around whether we've gone the right way.
35:52But look where we are. This is really special.
35:56Named by Europeans after the Archbishop Fonseca, a nemesis of Christopher Columbus,
36:02the gulf is surrounded by three countries, El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua.
36:08Breathtaking to see it.
36:09And it's not like anything I've ever seen before.
36:12I feel like I'm in Jurassic Park.
36:14We could have gone bus to bus to bus to bus to bus all the way around.
36:17It would have been stressful.
36:19We would have saved money.
36:20But this is my kind of travel.
36:28The largest Pacific island in Honduras.
36:33Tiger Island was established as a major port by the Germans in the late 19th century.
36:39Today it is a peaceful fishing community and receives scant foreign visitors.
36:46You're just worried about changing money.
36:48Yeah.
36:49Hola. Habla inglese.
36:52Oh my God, this is brilliant, changing the money in here.
36:54Just in someone's living room.
36:56Maria de Jesus.
36:57Maria de Jesus.
36:58Para servirles.
36:59Si.
37:00Roman.
37:01Roman.
37:01Ah, no problem.
37:03Si.
37:03Bienvenidos al lugar.
37:05Que la disfruten.
37:07Que vayan a pasear a conocer todos los momentos de Amapalas.
37:11No hablo español, pero de donas.
37:14Si, si, si.
37:15Eh, ese es, eh, es, eh, posible.
37:19Eh, cambio a U.S. dollar?
37:21Si.
37:22Ok.
37:23It changed 50.
37:2450, yeah.
37:25I love this.
37:26I love the whole set-up.
37:272,400 and something.
37:30You happy with that?
37:31Yeah.
37:31Ok.
37:32Vivian.
37:33Adios.
37:34Adios.
37:35Buenas tardes.
37:36Buenas tardes.
37:39I'm really looking forward to it.
37:40I'm hoping we're going to have a nice day on Tiger Island.
37:44Are you ready?
37:45Are you ready?
37:46Are you ready?
37:47Are you ready?
37:48Are you ready to get to a checkpoint?
37:49Stop.
37:50There's a bus.
37:51They're all 15.
37:52I hope they're all going to the same place.
37:54Fully recovered, Molly and Tyler are planning to cross into Honduras at the El Amatillo border,
38:00via the transport hub of San Miguel.
38:03San Miguelito.
38:05Easy.
38:06Checkpoint couldn't feel any more real.
38:08Oh, it's so close today.
38:11Do we know for definite that San Miguelito is San Miguel?
38:16I don't, but I've seen every bus say San Miguelito, San Miguel, San Miguelito, so I can only
38:23guess that it's the same.
38:26Disculpe, is this San Miguel?
38:29This bus, San Miguel?
38:31Otro.
38:32Oh, another bus.
38:33It's not going.
38:35San Salvador.
38:36Oh, this is going San Salvador.
38:38Ok.
38:39Gracias.
38:40So it's not.
38:41Ok.
38:42We're going to rewind our confidence there.
38:44Then we're actually going back on ourselves.
38:47Yeah.
38:48I think we just need to get off.
38:50Ok.
38:51That's called moving quick.
38:55We're on the wrong bus.
38:56I feel like that was very good to talk to people.
38:59Well done.
39:00We need to get a bus from here to go that way.
39:03This is not a bus stop.
39:05That's a bus stop right there, no?
39:07No, but that's...
39:08I think we need to go that way, not that way.
39:11Ok.
39:12Yeah, San Miguel.
39:13Yeah.
39:14San Miguel.
39:15San Miguel.
39:17I mean, that's why we're a good team.
39:20Because we have the calm, need all the information, that person.
39:26And the storm.
39:27And the storm.
39:28I'm the storm.
39:30Only 50 kilometres behind and aiming for the same border.
39:35We have had a good journey so far.
39:36I think we can get a checkpoint.
39:37What's day?
39:38No.
39:39Why not?
39:40Come on to the border.
39:41Inching ahead.
39:42Please don't stop.
39:43Oh, he's stopping.
39:44Oh, he's stopping.
39:45He's stopping.
39:46He's stopping.
39:47The bus is broken.
39:48He's just asked us to push the bus to give it a jump start.
39:49Are you ready?
39:50Yeah, I guess so.
39:51Yeah, I guess so.
39:52I'm here for moral support.
39:55Oh, my God.
40:12I'm here for moral support.
40:18I'm here for moral support.
40:20Is it on?
40:22Yay!
40:24Was that not the most attractive thing you've ever seen me do?
40:27Yeah, it was pretty fit too fast.
40:29He better not stop again.
40:31Otherwise I'm walking to the border again.
40:34I told you, positivity.
40:38Yeah?
40:39What's come over here, Dylan?
40:41I don't know.
40:42We could do this first place.
40:45What?
40:46Second place maybe.
40:48Third.
40:49It's just somewhere it does not last.
40:52Yeah.
40:56Why has this stopped costing me more minutes?
41:03Amatillo?
41:04Si.
41:05OK, let's go.
41:06Amatillo, si.
41:07One dollar.
41:08One dollar.
41:09Oh my God, no.
41:10What?
41:11It's Dylan and Jackie.
41:13It's Dylan and Jackie, no!
41:15Which bus?
41:16This bus?
41:19Miles, just pretend to sleep.
41:21Just duck down.
41:22OK.
41:23Vamos!
41:24Vamos!
41:25No, it's vamos.
41:26Just us.
41:27Vamos!
41:32No way.
41:33Fancy seeing you guys here.
41:35Oh, man.
41:36They're probably a bit annoyed seeing us.
41:39Oh, yeah, yeah.
41:43If our two teams are here, where's the other two teams?
41:46True.
41:51Oh, man!
41:52Run!
41:53Run!
41:59Oh, no.
42:00Is that another team?
42:01Yeah.
42:02Oh, Dad, look!
42:03Look!
42:04Look!
42:05Yes!
42:06Oh, my God!
42:08There's another team.
42:09It's not Molly and Tyler.
42:10No way!
42:11Where are they?
42:12Molly and Tyler.
42:13I'm out!
42:14Are you following us?
42:15Well, we had to be.
42:16You've been winning the whole thing.
42:19That means they've caught up with the three-hour head start.
42:22Yes, they have caught us up.
42:24Yeah, definitely.
42:25Yeah.
42:26Right, should we go to that bus?
42:28Just ask for the bus to stop.
42:29We'll go find out, Dad.
42:30Now, in Honduras, just 170 kilometres stands between three teams in the checkpoint, along
42:36the one road that crosses the sun-baked plains of the Pacific lowlands.
42:41With nightfall approaching, they need to find a place to bend down.
42:45Tonight, we need to sleep somewhere halfway.
42:49Hotel?
42:50There's a hotel in Hicaragua.
42:51Yeah, you can go with this, with the bus.
42:53All right, let's do it.
42:54Donde es una hora from aquí?
42:59In Nakaome.
43:00Nakaome.
43:01It's an Eastern bar.
43:03Follow them.
43:04Fancy seeing you.
43:06I think there's space on this bus.
43:09Oh, it's quite a cosy bus.
43:11Not to tour it.
43:13Off we go, Dad.
43:14It must be such a sore feeling to have such a lead.
43:18It's just not quite a leader anymore.
43:24Just 70 kilometres to the south.
43:29I think this has been such a welcome little stop, even if it was just to clear our heads
43:35a little bit.
43:36Yeah.
43:37You know what we need to do tonight?
43:39What?
43:40Find out how to get out of here.
43:41Yeah.
43:45We are in a race.
43:46OK.
43:47So, tomorrow, we need to get back into the mainland.
43:50We're headed towards Valle de Angeles.
43:52Oh, Valle de Angeles.
43:53Oh, Valle de Angeles.
43:54You can take the boat from here.
43:55Right.
43:56That one is a little bit expensive.
43:58OK.
43:59But we go fishing tomorrow morning, and after fishing, we can take you from here.
44:03Yeah?
44:04We'd be so grateful.
44:05No, that's OK.
44:06It will help our budget, so I really appreciate it.
44:08Cheers.
44:09Salud.
44:10Salud.
44:11Salud.
44:12Salute.
44:13Right, let's go to the beach.
44:14Woo-hoo!
44:15That's it.
44:16Let's shake off our stress.
44:17What are we doing?
44:18We've got nothing to worry about.
44:19We're happy and healthy, and life is amazing.
44:20I just feel a bit awkward doing that.
44:21I don't know.
44:22Woo-hoo!
44:23What am I meant to be doing?
44:24Feeling happy.
44:25I don't know.
44:26I get embarrassed about feeling happy.
44:35I have to say, I'm so happy.
44:40I don't know, I get embarrassed about feeling happy.
44:42I have to say, I'm so happy!
44:46I'm so happy!
44:48Whoo! I'm not gonna have anxiety tomorrow!
44:52Not gonna have anxiety tomorrow!
44:54Shake it out of your body!
45:00We're gonna win the race!
45:04It's been a long time since, you know, Harley and I have just kind of been silly together.
45:08And it helped.
45:10Being able to be silly with her is kind of a special moment.
45:15The more she's understanding how my brain works, the more she's trying to help me and not push me away.
45:21Which is a massive, massive breakthrough in our relationship.
45:27You feel alright? Yeah, I'm alright.
45:29You're doing a good job in life!
45:31I'm doing a good job in life! I'm doing okay!
45:38Have a good night's sleep, guys!
45:41Oh, the first to jump!
45:45Are these guys getting off too?
45:47How do they know that we don't?
45:49Good luck to you!
45:50Good night, guys!
45:51The plot thickens!
45:52As darkness falls, two teams stop for the night.
45:55Well, it's not just...
45:57But following the trail of a tip-off, Anita and Bal push on.
46:01Inshallah!
46:03Oh, brilliant. Well done.
46:07I swear I saw someone in a red T-shirt go into the room on the corner.
46:11Yeah, I swear I saw my bag.
46:13It's too close, my old.
46:15I don't.
46:16I might shower now.
46:18Put my clothes on.
46:19Sleep upright.
46:21With my bag on.
46:23We just go.
46:26It's game time.
46:29It's an incredible feeling to catch up with Anita and Bal.
46:33Absolutely shocked.
46:34I'd love to see Dylan's face if we did win.
46:37He just wouldn't believe it.
46:39I am thinking what's happened with Anita and Bal.
46:42Because they stayed on.
46:43They looked a bit worried whether they've done the right decision.
46:48Wow, Dad.
46:50Doesn't look like this much here.
46:52Six kilometres closer to the checkpoint.
46:55Hola, amigo.
46:58Hotel, aquí?
46:59Hotel.
47:00Si.
47:02No, no, no, no.
47:04That's where everybody got off.
47:06Hotel.
47:07Hotel.
47:08Hotel.
47:09No, there's no hotel here.
47:10Hotel.
47:11Hotel.
47:12Hotel.
47:13So now we're here, standing on a one-horse town, with no hotel.
47:18So we're going back there.
47:20What if there's no rooms left?
47:335.15am.
47:34This must be how Usain Bolt fell on the qualifiers for the Olympics.
47:43I just really want to get out of last.
47:46130 kilometres south of the checkpoint.
47:48Oh, I see people up the top, Mum.
47:50I think that's Dylan and Jackie.
47:53I think that's...
47:55Is it?
47:56Yeah.
47:57That's one block.
47:58That's the second.
47:59What's that?
48:00Anita and Bal.
48:01So they probably had to go back on themselves.
48:03Oh, how funny.
48:04We did make the right call.
48:05Yeah, yeah, yeah.
48:06Stopping off here.
48:08All right, all right.
48:09Morning.
48:10Morning.
48:11Did you stay here last night, yeah?
48:12Yeah, we did.
48:13The hotel was supposed to be there.
48:14We got to it.
48:15They said it's so...
48:17It's gone.
48:18Then we came back here.
48:20Jackie and Dylan are already here.
48:21And then...
48:22Anita and Bal pull up.
48:23So they didn't get much further, did they?
48:25Whoa!
48:27What?
48:29I've never seen you like this in the morning.
48:32Look, it is what it is.
48:34We just catch the beam in the foot race.
48:40But Roman and Harley could already be there.
48:43Yeah.
48:47What time do you want to call it?
48:49Yeah.
48:5320 past?
48:54Yeah.
48:56The boat that's meant to be taking us is still not back.
49:02Christian has gone fishing.
49:04And if he's late, we're screwed.
49:08He said he'd be back to come and collect us to go to Coyolito.
49:12I wouldn't want to try and go into the town and panic and go.
49:15And realistically, even if we go into the town,
49:17it will take some time to find one.
49:20I'm like...
49:22The more hours we're losing,
49:24it's wrecking my nerves.
49:26Come on, man.
49:28Come on, don't let us down.
49:29Don't let us down.
49:31It's getting tight.
49:33This is not an ideal situation.
49:38Okay.
49:39Roman?
49:40Yeah?
49:41There is a boat.
49:42There's a boat.
49:43There's a boat.
49:44There's a boat.
49:46It's for Coyolito.
49:47Yes.
49:48This is for Coyolito.
49:49Yes.
49:50Harley, let's go.
49:51Yeah.
49:52Yeah.
49:54Oh, the relief.
49:56That was high anxiety.
49:58I'm not gonna lie.
49:59I think just standing and waiting for anything
50:01is, like, the worst feeling in this race.
50:04It's más rápida.
50:05Sí.
50:07I've got Hawkeyes,
50:08and I can see a yellow bus on the horizon, right?
50:12Yeah, I can see it.
50:13Get ready to run.
50:14Yeah.
50:16All right, let's go.
50:18All right, quick.
50:19Let's go.
50:20Go, go, go, go, go.
50:22Dad, Dad, let's go, let's go.
50:24Yeah, yeah, sir.
50:25Hola.
50:27The Valley of Angels.
50:29Nestled amongst the pine forests of the Honduran Highlands,
50:33a colonial mountain town,
50:35and the third checkpoint of the race.
50:39Come on, Dad, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go.
50:42Travel by Tuk Tuk, locate the Buena Venus of Valle de Angelis sign.
50:47I'm gonna wait for the instructions.
50:48Come on, Dad.
50:49Gracias.
50:50Gracias.
50:51Excuse me, senor, senor, senor.
50:52We need to get in here.
50:56Go, go, go, go, go.
50:57I think we might be ahead of the road.
50:58Come on.
51:01All right.
51:02Go, go, go, go.
51:03Vamos, vamos, vamos.
51:04Vamos, vamos.

51:19Fire in an action.

51:21I will.
51:22I'll probably be like a James Bond girl.
51:27We're out.
51:28Here you go, Sian.
51:29Bienvenidas, Valle de Angelis.
