| BACKGROUND OF THE EVENT |
Le Fruit Triathlon was created in 2002 by Mr Jean-Luc VOISIN. The event is the longest standing multi-sport event organized in Vietnam. And the unique off-road triathlon organized in Vietnam. Le Fruit Triathlon is named after the natural juices Le Fruit made exclusively from fresh fruits ethically sourced in Vietnam. |

| THE 11TH EDITION |
On the 26th of May 2012, the family and sport destination will be the 11th edition of off-road triathlon in Phan Thiet region, Vietnam.
At Le Fruit Triathlon, in a celebration of off-road sports that will showcase some of the Region's natural treasures of Mui Ne in Binh Thuan province, competitors will swim, run and mountain bike their way over some spectacular coastline in and around the immense 'Saharan' dunes, before finishing at the Suoi Nuoc Beach.
More than two hundred triathletes, aged from 6 to 60 are expected upon the shores of Mui Ne on May 26, 2012. For the 11th Edition of Le Fruit Triathlon, racers will bring fierce determination and leave little environmental impact behind following the race.
For the fourth consecutive year, Le Fruit and Viet Adventure are teaming up to organize a children's Triathlon in Mui Ne. A popular event for local and foreign children, pupils aged between 6 and 12 years old are invited.

| MORE THAN JUST A TRIATHLON |
For Viet Adventure, Social Responsibility is about living our values each and every day. In partnership with the Red Cross, we chose to support childhood programs in a fishermen village. Net proceeds from the Triathlon will benefit children in need to thrive in food-secure environment and to finance their education. Our intent is to make positive difference in the lives of orphans and single-parent kids from the fishermen village Suoi Nuoc next to Mui Ne.
Moreover, Viet Adventure started the ‘Beach Cleaning Initiative’ in 2002 with the first edition of Le Fruit Triathlon to provide clean and safe beaches for the bare feet of the triathletes, and also for the bare feet of the next generation. |
