Eugene couple to compete on 'The Amazing Race' | KVAL CBS 13
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Married beekeepers Anita, 63, and Arthur Jones, 61, from Eugene, Ore., are the oldest — and perhaps most colorful — team on this season of "The Amazing Race."
Among the self-described hippies' mottos: "Don't worry, be hippie" and "The hokey pokey is what it's all about."
Before the race, the Joneses worked out in hopes of keeping up with the other teams.
"We both tried to do some training, along the lines of going down to our little gym, but that was pretty much it," said Anita. "We have an emerging farm, so we do a lot of work out there, splitting wood and taking care of the horses. We're pretty physical, so we thought, 'Hey, we can be in there with everybody else. It'll be fun.
