The Amazing Race 6 is the sixth season of the American reality competition show The Amazing Race. Hosted by Phil Keoghan, it featured 11 teams of two, each with a pre-existing relationship, competing in a race around the world. This season visited four continents and 10 countries, traveling approximately 40,000 miles (64,000 km) over 12 legs. Filming took place between August 13 and September 12, 2004. Starting in Chicago, Illinois, racers traveled through Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Senegal, Germany, Hungary, France, Ethiopia, Sri Lanka, and China before returning to the United States, traveling through Hawaii and finishing in Chicago. New twists introduced in this season include the double-length leg and limiting the number of Roadblocks that each team member could perform. The season premiered on CBS on November 16, 2004, and concluded on February 8, 2005.
