Coming in July

"According to the rules the minimum weight of the wife is 49 kilos. If it is less, the wife will be burdened with such a heavy rucksack that the total weight is 49 kilos. Generally the best wife is the wife of one’s own, all the more if she is harmonious, gentle and able to keep her balance while riding on the shoulders of her man."

Less than six months to go to the 13th Annual Wife Carrying World Championships.

I know a lot of wives who feel as if they are already burdened with a heavy rucksack.
