Previously: Our 13 players set off on a race around the world, flying to Reykjavik, Iceland. After identifying a furry's fantasy, and cooking whale blubber, they raced to see the Northern Lights. #Systrix emerged as the victor of the first leg, meanwhile #Symmetry888 become the race's first victim. 12 now remain...who will be eliminated tonight?
We are currently standing outside of the Icelandic Broadcasting Service, where the second leg of the race will begin. Due to finishing 1st in the previous leg, Systrix will be the first to depart, meanwhile Coolkat will be the last
Heading to Reykjavik airport, our racers will book themselves onto one of three flights. The first flight will depart earliest, landing in New York city. Racers will then board a connecting flight to Guatemala. The second flight will take racers to Toronto, while the third will take them to Pittsburgh. The second flight lands 15 minutes after the first, while the third lands 30 minutes after the first

After landing in Guatemala City, racers will take a bus up to the Tikal National Park, where they will spend the night
----------
The next morning, players leave in the same order their flights arrived. Searching the grounds of the park, they will find a clue to their first Roadblock
In this Roadblock, racers will enter a reconstruction of a Mayan temple, searching for three sacks of puzzle pieces. Once found, players will make their way up to the top of the temple, where they must solve the puzzle in order to retrieve their next clue
After finishing the Roadblock, racers will be given a clue leading to a detour. They now have a choice between two tasks:
Sky High: Racers must construct a smaller version of a Maya temple. Once it reaches a certain height, they will be awarded their next clue. This task could take between 30 minutes and 60 minutes
Buried Deep: Racers must dig for Mayan artifacts in a nearby area. Upon finding two, they will be awarded their next clue. This task could take between 10 minutes and 80 minutes
Tommy123, I'm afraid you are the last to arrive, and that you have been eliminated from the race. Thank you so much for playing!!!

And with that...we are down to our final 11. This was a physically grueling leg, so we truly got to see who had endurance today. Rest up, you'll need it!!!
