Angkor Wat International Duathlon To be Held in September

AKP Phnom Penh, August 17, 2012 –

The Cambodian Triathlon Federation (CTF) is planning to organize the first-ever Angkor Wat International Duathlon next month in Siem Reap province, some 315 kilometers northwest of Phnom Penh Capital, according to local reports.

It will be a half duathlon with a circuit of five kilometers of running, then 20 kilometers of biking and finally 2.5 kilometers of running.

CTF President Mr. Kong Rithy Chup is convinced that the upcoming event will attract more local and international competitors after the success of Phnom Penh International Duathlon in July, which gathered nearly 300 participants.
