Pairs compete in quirky UK Wife Carrying Race | AFP

Feet in the air and crash helmets on: the UK Wife Carrying Race takes place in Surrey, England, with teams running up and down a hill in a quirky tradition with Finnish roots. "It’s like being put in a washing machine," says Hattie Cronin, of the second-placed pair. Finnish winner Teemu Tuovinen says the win is a "dream come true" after travelling to the UK for the race.
