context_page_description: The Amazing Race 31 is the thirty-first installment of the American reality television show The Amazing Race. This season features eleven teams of two – each consisting of contestants from previous seasons of Big Brother, Survivor, and The Amazing Race – in a race around the world for a US$1 million grand prize. The season premiered on April 17, 2019, replacing the low-rated Million Dollar Mile. It initially aired on CBS's Wednesday 9:00 pm ET time slot following Survivor: Edge of Extinction. Following Survivor's season finale, The Amazing Race was rescheduled to Survivor's former time slot of 8:00 pm starting May 22, 2019. The finale aired on its original Wednesday 9:00 pm time slot due to the premiere week for Big Brother 21.
  Life partners Colin Guinn and Christie Woods from The Amazing Race 5 were the winners of this season of the Race.

  In this leg's Roadblock, one team member would be harnessed to a canyon swing. They would then free-fall 400 feet (120 m) and swing into the Gletscherschlucht. After the swing, they would then have to search the gorge for their next clue.
  This leg's Detour was a choice between Water Power and Water Down. In Water Power, teams had to ride the Gelmerbahn. During the ride, teams had to memorize eight signs that listed water basins and amount of water they hold. When their ride ended, teams had to run across a hydroelectric dam and match the eight basin names to their water capacities on a technical map to receive their next clue. Otherwise, they would have to ride the Gelmerbahn again. In Water Down, teams had to go canyoneering in the Grimsel Canyon. They had to rappel 150 feet (46 m) down a canyon, jump from a ledge into a glacial river, and then jump to grab their next clue hanging from a rope. After retrieving their clue, team members had to ride a zip-line and release themselves to drop down into a river before hiking out of the canyon.
  Additional task
  After teams completed the Roadblock, they had to make their way to a helicopter, which would take them to Grimsel Pass, where they would find their next clue.
