The Amazing Race 17 is the seventeenth season of the American reality competition show The Amazing Race. Hosted by Phil Keoghan, it featured eleven teams of two, each with a pre-existing relationship, competing in a race around the world in order to win US$1,000,000. This season visited four continents and ten countries and traveled over 32,000 miles (51,000 km). Starting in Gloucester, Massachusetts, racers traveled through England, Ghana, Sweden, Norway, Russia, Oman, Bangladesh, Hong Kong, and South Korea before finishing in Greater Los Angeles. New twists introduced in this season include the Express Pass, which was awarded to the winners of the first leg and allowed them to skip the task of their choosing, and the Double U-Turn. The season premiered on CBS on September 26, 2010, with a special 90-minute premiere, and the season finale aired on December 12, 2010.
Anesthesiologists Natalie Strand and Katherine Chang were the winners of this season, while home shopping hosts Brook Roberts and Claire Champlin finished in second place, and dating couple Jill Haney and Thomas Wolfard finished in third place.
