DOCTORS Nat and Kat have crossed the finish line to win American TV challenge show "The Amazing Race."
They have made history, becoming the first two-woman team to claim the million-dollar prize in the 17 seasons of the CBS reality series.
The two doctors, Nat Strand and Kat Chang were first to reach the Los Angeles destination in Sunday's finale.
Finishing in second place were a rival female duo, Brook Roberts and Claire Champlin, who are friends and hosts on a home shopping network.
Coming in third were dating couple Jill Haney and Thomas Wolfard.
During the show, the three teams had to bungee jump off a giant crane at the Port of Long Beach, decorate a float for a New Year's day parade, and play a trivia contest with veteran game-show host Bob Eubanks.
The race ended on a terrace of Beverly Hills' Greystone Mansion.
The finalists covered four continents, 30 cities and 51,500 kilometers, "The Amazing Race" host Phil Keoghan told Strand and Chang as he declared them the winners.
Speaking by phone from New York after the broadcast, Strand said, for her, one of the worst moments of the entire journey had been dropping from that crane on Sunday's final episode.
Celebrating their victory, which was sealed at Greystone Mansion in California some six months ago, Chang said:?"It still feels a little bit unreal. Having to keep it a secret until just a half-hour ago made it really difficult for it to feel real. I could only share stories with Nat. We would say things to each other like: 'Do you believe what we did?'"
