People calling Beth old on the Duel… she’s 36

Just rewatched The Duel which aired in 2006, so I’m estimating Beth was 36 when it was filmed. Beth was being called too old and over the hill every episode she was on. Watching the reunion now and someone tells her to know when to call it quits (reality tv). They really treat her as a grandma.

I just think it’s funny because Johnny is currently 42 with no end in sight. Also for reference the following players are 36 or older during season 40:

Kaycee 36

Jenny 37

Tony 36

Leroy 39

Derek 36

KellyAnne 38

Cara 38

Nehemiah 38

Laurel 39

Aviv 40

Brandon 40

Bananas 40

Ryan 43

And then of course all of Era 1.

And Eras 3 and 4 are not too far behind mostly being between 31-35. Of course the Challenge has cultivated super athletes who’s entire lives have been training for more challenges / tv so they are in better condition than Beth was, but still. Wild.
