Results

A great time was had by all runners and staff on Ko Dach, and many participants came away with personal bests on a fast and easy-to-navigate course. 

See the below for 10k results, our staff will come up with details for the team competition and the other distances shortly.

The number of runners this time was bigger than in the two previous events, and it was the biggest chip-timed event we had in Cambodia. Only in the good old days of the Beeline Time Trial we had more people running.

Personally, I felt happy to see several families coming out and enjoying a day out while being active. I was also very impressed by the performances of some of the juniors, We-Run/RIC will continue supporting them as one of our main priorities.

Thanks to all participants and our great staff! We really had a fun time out at Tonle Sap River, and the groundwork was laid for more of this to come!

Jean Loup Colombi continued his dominance, this time over the shorter distance of 10k, being the only finisher under 40 minutes.

In the women's division, the usual suspect Vero Messina took it relatively easy finishing in 44:48.

Jacob Petersen had to leave right away, so he decided for the shorter 5k and kicked butt in 20:15.

In the women's 5k, Muyngim Eng ran a PB in 22:38, not unexpected after her recent surge on other distances and in training.

Thanks to all runners and staff of the inaugural Battambang Bamboo Half Marathon! We had a high quality field with an amazing 1:30:47 winners time, congrats to Jean Loup Colombi!

The 10km were won by Guillaume Mellet in 51:09, a great effort as it was his first race ever!

And apologies to Hiroya Kon and Benjamin Rost, because they got off course while running in 3rd and 4th position, really sorry as we just didn't have enough helpers to cover all the difficult turns. We will improve on that next time!

Thanks to all participants and staff for supporting today's inaugural Battambang Bamboo Road Race. The winner was Viro Ma in 36:16 for 10k, with yours truly guiding him on the bike. Unfortunately, due to some misunderstandings with our still inexperienced staff, some runners lost their way and the times we took don't reflect their actual performance, therefore I will not publish them here.

However, right after the race I ran the improved course for the second edition, which will take place as soon as our race director, Muyngim Eng, is back in the country, so watch this place for more news about exciting events in Battambang. 

Thanks to Daun Penh Company for sponsoring the Pro vida mineral water for our race in Battambang!
