While many teams sign up for The Amazing Race with the ultimate goal of winning $1 million in mind, one season 26 couple is focusing more on the adventure that could be awaiting them instead.

Mike Dombrowski, a 26-year-old truck stop owner and Rochelle Nevedal, a 29-year-old engineer from Michigan, are one of the already dating couples appearing on the upcoming season, and though they admit winning the ultimate prize at the finish line would be nice, it's not about that for them.

"We're going into it just to have a good time," Nevedall said in a pre-race interview with CBS. "Like, we're going to try everything we can to win and experience everything around us, but at the end of the day, we want to make sure we're having a good time, getting along with each other...and I'm sure that's going to help us throughout the race."

The couple also believes that while the race itself will be a bit stressful, they think they'll be able to cope with things because of how they work as a team.

"I think it will be very stressful on the race, but I think at the end of the day, when we are able to kind of sit down and calm down we'll be able to have this experience that no one else will have," Dombrowski said.

The couple also thinks they'll be able to handle things well while racing because they balance one another out-a key element of running the race successfully.

"He's really fearless, and I'm afraid of heights, and I'm also a vegetarian so I'm scared of like the food challenges..." Nevedall said. "...As an engineer, I'm good with like, maps and, like, tedious stuff and details like that, so I think like where he lacks in that aspect, I'll be really good at."

The Amazing Race season 26 premieres Wednesday, Feb. 25 at 9:30 p.m. on CBS.
