Vietnam to host international triathlon in August
More than 500 athletes will compete in the Challenge Vietnam triathlon in the coastal city of Nha Trang, the central province of Khanh Hoa on August 27.
The event’s organisers said the triathlon will offer a 1.9km swim in clear water, a two-lap 90km bike race and a 21km run along the beach road of Tran Phu.
After swimming, athletes will hop on their bikes and race on a seaside road that goes past resorts, the local harbor and cliffs.
Finally, the run will also take place along the coastline so athletes can experience the cool breeze of sea air while hearing the sight and sounds of the locals and tourists.
