North American Wife Carrying Championships 2010- Part 1

So. This is our journey to Newry, Maine this past fall.

Things we don't mention in the video.
We stopped in the middle of training to help the lady with a flat tire. She gave us palm readings for our kindness.
It's a 13+ hour drive from Virginia to Maine.
We got stuck in Rush hour traffic in DC, Philadelphia, and New York.
We arrived at 3:00 AM.
It's a timed race-- The top 2 times race again for the Championship.
The hurdle is 39 inches high.
We took 6th place!
It was 40 degrees the day of the competition.
On our way back home, a house that burned down next to where we were staying.
Herbalists took us in, gave us amazing tea, and told good stories.
We did contact improv in New York City.
We got lost in Boston for 6 hours.
Our Car broke down, but it was OK because there was a carnival nearby.
I hit a skunk on the way home. It was really, really smelly.
