VTV.vn - The second VNG Ironman 70.3 Vietnam has returned to Danang City on May 8th, following the success of the inaugural contest last year.

VNG Ironman 70.3 Vietnam is an international triathlon event, including 1.9km of swimming, 90km of cycling and 21km of running. This year’s event attracted over 1100 athletes from 60 countries and territories. 

After the contest in Danang City, 46 of the best athletes will be chosen to join the final world round in Mooloobala, Australia, and 44 will join the Asia-Pacific final round in Cebu, Philippines.
