Can you pick-up your wife without causing back pain?

NEWRY, Maine - A Maine couple has taken the crown in the North American Wife Carrying Championship over a course that featured a muddy water hole and two log obstacles.

Dave and Lacey Castro of Lewiston came in first among 41 teams to win Saturday's competition at Sunday River ski resort in Newry. They covered the 278-yard course in 54.45 seconds.

That is AWESOME!! The winners got the wife's weight in beer, and five times her weight in cash. I would love to do this.

I would win:

128 pounds of beer
$640 in cash

Just for running 278 yards? Im in.

I'd like to say yes, but the mud might make it difficult. Last I knew, she weighed 180, and I weigh 125. I know I could pick her up and run, but I don't know about the mud.
