  一年一度的背老婆世界锦标赛于上周六举行,芬兰人在本届比赛中再度夺冠。当天,一个名叫泰斯托 米耶蒂宁的男子倒扛着他的妻子克丽斯蒂娜 哈帕宁,以最快的速度跑完了253米(832英尺)的比赛全程。
  这对上届比赛的卫冕冠军在本次比赛中用时1分零5秒完成了比赛。
  来自爱沙尼亚的艾拉 弗苟和克丽斯提 维尔特洛普夫妇在水障碍区中绊倒,以5秒之差屈居第二。
  芬兰人伊尔坡 哈里斯托和萨图 尤瑞宁获得铜牌。
  泰斯托 米耶蒂宁和克丽斯蒂娜 哈帕宁这一年来一直在一起训练。
  比赛当天艳阳高照,十分炎热。米耶蒂宁在赛后说:“之前我常去健身房,但现在我经常跑步,这就是我获胜的秘诀。”
  背老婆世锦赛至今已举办第十五届,此次比赛吸引了来自15个国家的55对夫妇参加,其中包括澳大利亚、爱尔兰和波兰。比赛在芬兰东部偏僻的松卡耶尔维村庄举行,该村庄位于首都赫尔辛基东北部约485公里(302英里)处。
  背老婆比赛源于芬兰的一个“强盗龙凯宁”传说。龙凯宁和他的同伙们住在森林里,从附近的村庄偷食物,抢姑娘。
  Vocabulary:
  trip: 绊倒
  legend of Ronkainen the Robber: 传说一位名叫龙卡伊宁的芬兰强盗在松卡耶尔维一带招兵买马,聚啸山林。为了招到体格健壮的部下,他想出了一个独特的招数:在一条道路上设置各种障碍,让所有应征者背着一袋玉米或者一头活猪越过障碍,合格者才能被留下。也有说法是这项赛事来自古老部落的一种“偷妻”风俗,当地男人如果要娶媳妇,先要以这种方式与其他男人比赛,以此证明他可以带着妻子闯过难关。
