Strong line-up for Bonaqua Africa Triathlon Cup

AT least 54 elite and junior athletes from 20 different countries are set to grace the 15th edition of the Bonaqua Africa Triathlon Cup and Multisport Festival which take place in Nyanga on Saturday.

Zimbabwe will not have any representative in the elite class after the country’s top female athlete Andie Kuipers pulled out due to school commitments in the United States.

Kuipers, who is at Lenoir-Rhyne University in South Carolina, is missing the flagship triathlon competition for the second year running, but a strong line-up of male and female junior elite athletes will fly the country’s flag in Nyanga.
