Team

Timothy Sweeney

• Age: 32
• Hometown: Morristown, N.J.
• Connection to your teammate: Exes
• Current occupation: Sports Marketing
• Describe what you do: Work with large brands to extend traditional sports sponsorships online using social and emerging media.
• 3 words to describe you: Calculated, witty and flirtatious.
• Favorite hobbies: Golf, writing and music (I play guitar).
• What is the accomplishment you are most proud of? Was drafted by the Washington Nationals to play professional baseball (2002).
• What famous person reminds you of yourself? Jimmy Fallon - funny, talented, light hearted and he’s not afraid to laugh at himself.
• What famous person reminds you of your teammate? Mix of Jillian Michaels and Paris Hilton – she’s a workout freak, athletic, aggressive, a socialite, likes Chihuahuas, Starbucks and is manipulative.
• What scares you most about traveling? Not being able to communicate. Language barriers.
• What excites you most about traveling? It makes you smarter, more cultured and getting to experience new places, people, food, etc.
• Biggest challenge you and your teammate will face on The Race together: I would like us to be able to communicate what’s best for each other as an “us.” Sometimes we lose focus on what’s best, to simply be right individually.
• Pet peeve about your teammate: Many times she loses perspective, forgets the big picture and becomes obsessed with being right, rather than solving the problem. And she thinks being the loudest makes her right.
• What country and place would you most like to visit and why? Anywhere that I wouldn’t normally think to go or want to go. Maybe see the pyramids, drop into a rainforest or secluded island.
• What do you hope to accomplish by running The Race (other than winning one million bucks)? Learn how to work together. When we aren’t dating everything is amazing, but as soon as we commit and decisions have to be made together, TROUBLE!

Marie "Reebs" Mazzocchi

• Age: 29
• Hometown: Morristown, N.J.
• Connection to your teammate: Exes
• Current occupation: Fitness Trainer
• Describe what you do: Kickboxing instructor/personal trainer
• 3 words to describe you: Impulsive, energetic and impatient.
• Favorite hobbies: Going to the gym, watching and playing sports and drawing.
• What is the accomplishment you are most proud of? There isn't one specific thing that stands out to me. I like to go after things where the odds are stacked against you. Victory is a lot sweeter when the challenge is greater.
• What famous person reminds you of yourself? Kristin Cavallari - (is she even still famous?) she doesn’t care what anyone thinks, does what she wants when she wants.
• What famous person reminds you of your teammate? Ryan Lochte, because he's in love with himself.
• What scares you most about traveling? Being helpless in an environment where I don’t speak the language/cleanliness - I’m a total germaphobe.
• What excites you most about traveling? Seeing different places and cultures. I’ve never been outside the U.S.
• Biggest challenge you and your teammate will face on The Race together: Neither one of us actually listens to one another - we both just yell at the same time trying to be right and walk away…nothing ever gets resolved.
• Pet peeve about your teammate: He always has to be right, even when he knows he’s wrong. He justifies anything and creates an argument out of anything and everything.
• What country and place would you most like to visit and why? A rainforest and/or any country or place with exotic animals!!
• What do you hope to accomplish by running The Race (other than winning one million bucks?): We both love competition. For us this race is more about winning than money.

Memorable Moments

• Taking off in Leo & Jamal's taxi before they could get into it in 1st leg at Iquique, Chile.
• Beating Travis and Nicole due to their penalty and winning the Express Pass.
• Rivalry with most of the teams mostly because of Marie's manipulation for them to do favor for her in exchange for the spare Express Pass, her poor on-screen treatment of Tim, and their frequent betrayal against their allies.
• Tim & Marie was forced by Nicole to hand over the Express Pass in the fourth leg to Nicole & Travis as a exchange for information of the pit stop due to Tim & Marie was lost their way to the pit stop. They eventually hand over the Express Pass in the next leg.
• Taking Jason & Amy's taxi in the sixth leg since their taxi driver took their belongings out, leading to a confrontation at the pit stop.

Trivia

• During Leg 5 in season 23, Tim & Marie is the only team to check-in at the pitstop without a costume since they used the Express Pass to bypass the Detour (in which the costumes the teams wore during their finished Detour would have to kept worn until the end of the Leg).
