  'The Amazing Race' eliminates Dustin Konzelman, Kandice Pelletier

  
  Unable to reach the The Amazing Race 10's penultimate Pit Stop before any of the competition's three other remaining teams (never mind fast enough to overcome the thirty minute "marked for elimination" penalty that their last place finish in the Race's previous non-elimination leg had burdened them with), beauty queens Dustin Konzelman and Kandice Pelletier became the eighth team to be eliminated from the latest edition of the CBS reality show.
