The Amazing Race Wiki

Zainab Ansari and Monica Demian[1] are a team of Co-Workers & Navy Sailors on The Amazing Race Canada: Heroes Edition.

The pair frequently found themselves racing at the back of the pack, which included being saved by Non-Elimination Legs on legs two and five. However, their luck would eventually run out in leg six, where their deficit compared to the other teams still racing was enough to ensure that they would stay in the back, and upon being U-Turned by fellow trailing team Courtney & Adam as a way to ensure their own safety, a last place finish for the navy sailors was imminent, leading to their elimination in 7th place.
