Race Across The World Winners Reveal Sweet Plans For Their Prize Money

The stars of Race Across The World 2025Warning: This article contains major spoilers for the latest episode of Race Across The World.After an epic trek that took its participants from China to the most southerly point of India, the latest season of Race Across The World is now over.In Wednesday night’s gripping finale, mother-and-son duo Caroline and Thomas were the first past the finish line, beating their nearest competitors, sisters Elizabeth and Letitia, by less than 20 minutes.Young couple Fin and Sioned arrived around half an hour after Elizabeth and Letitia, while brothers Brian and Melvyn were the the last to pass the finish line a respectable three hours and five minutes after the winners.Over the course of the race, viewers saw Caroline grow in confidence as she opened up to her son about her growing feelings of having lost her purpose in her home life.Tom, too, stepped into his own on the race, as he began sharing more about his cerebral palsy, a condition he admitted he’d previously been nervous to discuss outside of his close circle.Speaking after her win, Caroline admitted: “It feels absolutely amazing, I’m so sad it’s come to the end. That is the worst bit about it. “We’ve enjoyed being with everybody but my God this race has meant so much. We’ve learnt so much, we’ve enjoyed it and to actually win it as well as to have the experience is the best thing that could have happened to us.”Caroline and Tom celebrating their Race Across The World victoryAsked how they plan to spend their £20,000 prize pot, Tom said: “I haven’t really thought about what I’m doing with the money yet.“I don’t want to be stupid and waste it.”He then added: “Mum and I want to go backpacking again so some of it will be used for that.”Last year’s winner Owen Wood also put his prize money towards furthering his world travels, which he’s been documenting on his Instagram ever since.Meanwhile, Caroline added that the money could also be used to help her son open up a business he’s starting, which is inspired by their time spent travelling through India together.Casting for the upcoming sixth season of Race Across The World is now open until 6 July, with the third celebrity run returning to our screens later this year.A reunion of this year’s cast is due to air on Wednesday night at 9pm on BBC One.MORE RACE ACROSS THE WORLD:12 Behind-The-Scenes Secrets You Didn’t Know About Race Across The WorldThis Is The 1 Time Race Across The World Producers Will Intervene During The Pairs' JourneysRace Across The World Contestant Sam Gardiner Has Died, Aged 24
