John Erck and Jessica Hoel

Maybe the second time's a charm. Just two seasons after finishing 9th on "The Amazing Race," John Erck of Mora, Minn. and Eden Prairie's Jessica Hoel will compete in an all-star edition of the Emmy-winning reality series.

The engaged couple will go up against 10 veteran teams that include a pair of Harlem Globetrotters and a couple of ranchers who finished second in season 18.

The season, which opens Feb. 23 on CBS, includes challenges in China, Malaysia, Rome and Sri Lanka.
