Phil Keoghan is the host of The Amazing Race on CBS. He has hosted the show since its debut in 2001 and has welcomed several Survivor contestants onto the show to compete for its grand prize. However, Frannie and Matt decided just to do a regular marathon and complete it happily.

According to the official site, Matt finished with a time of 5:13:12. He averaged 11:58 per mile and finished 737th out of 811 men in his division. Frannie finished with a time of 5:42:30. She averaged 13:05 a mile and finished in 537th out of 567 women in her division.

Frannie & Matt Reveal How Their Relationship Began

Frannie and Matt revealed that they fell for each other quickly when they both showed up on Survivor. Matt mentioned how, the first time he saw Frannie on Survivor, “she was wearing a shirt that said, ‘Kidney Health Matters,’” Matt said. “I thought, ‘This is a dork. We’re going to get along.”

Frannie also had her own story. “I saw him wearing glasses and I was like, ‘Oh, this is gonna be good,’” she said. “I think Matt and I had both just felt like normal people when we were looking at each other.”

Matt was voted out on Day 14 as the sixth eliminated. He was the first jury member, though. Frannie lasted only until Day 19; she was the ninth to be voted out and the fourth jury member. After the competition, they hooked up and have been together ever since.
