Angkor Wat International Half Marathon

The Angkor Wat International Half Marathon is an international charity event that has been running since 1996 for the benefit of landmine victims and other pressing issues in Cambodian development. Not only does it support good causes, but it is an awesome event so it might be a good idea to make some space in your diary early.
 

Morning mist rises over the spectacular Angkor temple complex 

Angkor Wat International Half Marathon 2010 will be held in front of Angkor Wat on Sunday 5 December 2010. Angkor Wat is one of the true wonders of the world and the race course offers fantastic views of historical temples and lush jungle reflecting in the ponds and moats as the morning mist rises. The courses go around the main area of Angkor ruins and is, truly, an opportunity not to be missed.

Join in the fun - options are available for everyone

Race types include 21 km International Half Marathon, 10 km Road Race, 3 km Family Course, 21 km Wheel Chair, 10 km Artificial Limbs.

Additionally, on Saturday 4 December 2010, there will be arranged Angkor Wat Bike Race and Rally where options include a 30 km bike race that will take you around the magnificent temple complex and an 80 km race that will take you around a second loop. Due to popular demand, a cycle race has been introduced as an exciting new event where teams can rent cycles that later will be used as a pro-poor tourism initiative which creates employment opportunities.
