Marriage on the Run

Look, dear! I found a way we can both get new laptops--and 12 gallons of beer, as well!

Finishing upside down clinging to a man's back may not be the most graceful way of winning gold, but it has helped Sandra Kullas and Margo Uusorg to the world wife-carrying crown.

They raced along a 250-metre track, complete with pools and hurdles, with the men running or walking and carrying the women on their backs.

The winning Estonians received laptop computers and Ms Kullas' weight in beer.

I'm not daft, you know; do the math. Assume the specific gravity of unfiltered pond water--Coors Light, in other words.
