Keoghan To Embark on a 40 Day, Coast-to-Coast Bike Ride Across America, Averaging
100 Miles Per Day, Covering Over 3,500 Miles Total with Pit Stops in Over 30 Cities
Phil Keoghan, host of CBS’s THE AMAZING RACE, will embark on his boldest
adventure yet — cycling from Los Angeles to New York — a ride that will average 100 miles
per day for a total of over 3,500 miles, spanning 40 days with pit stops in over 30 different cities.
“I fly over 400,000 miles a year and I figured it was time to stretch my legs. I love to ride
so I thought I’d see what this great country looks like up close instead of taking a bird’s eye view
at 30,000 feet,” said Keoghan. “In this economic climate, bike riding makes a lot of sense — it’s
good for your waistline and easy on your wallet.”
Phil Keoghan’s “Ride Across America Presented by GNC” will kickoff on March 28 in
Los Angeles and end on May 9 (the day before the finale of THE AMAZING RACE 14) in New
York. Along the way, he’ll attend meet and greets with supporters at local GNC stores, visit
CBS affiliates, attend open-casting calls for the next installment of THE AMAZING RACE, sign
copies of his best-selling book No Opportunity Wasted, and ride alongside ex-Racers and fans of
THE AMAZING RACE. He will also be participating in rallies hosted by the National MS
Society to build awareness for Bike MS and the MS movement.
“All of us at GNC are extremely impressed with Phil’s commitment and dedication to
living a healthy lifestyle,” stated Tom Dowd, Executive Vice President, Stores, Operations &
Development for GNC. “Having been fans of the ‘The Amazing Race’ and Phil from the first
season, we recognized what a great opportunity this was to partner with him.”

Phil Keoghan’s “Ride Across America” includes visits to such cities as: Las Vegas;
Denver; Lincoln, Neb.; Des Moines, Iowa; Chicago; Fort Wayne, Ind.; Columbus, Ohio;
Pittsburgh; Washington D.C.; Baltimore; Philadelphia and New York. Phil’s exact route will be
released soon.
“We’re also very excited to have the opportunity to be the sole retailer of Phil’s new
nutritional product, NOW OSM ‘One Square Meal,’ a total meal replacement that is guaranteed
to be a top seller at our GNC stores,” added Dowd.
