(voice **** ) tem—7-- The current Olympic Gold Medalist has confirmed to race at Laguna Phuket Triathlon 2009. The Laguna Phuket Triathlon organisers told Andaman News they are excited to announce that German triathlete Jan Frodeno, who won his country’s first triathlon gold medal at the Beijing Olympics in August 2008, will be competing in this year’s “Race of Legends” in Phuket on 6 December. In Beijing Frodeno edged out the pre race favourites in an exciting sprint finish to win a surprise gold medal. Frodeno has also recently struck a gold win in the ITU World Championship Series in Yokohama. Making his debut in Phuket, Frodeno’s presence will certainly add to the excitement as he battles it out with Australian defending champion Richie Cunningham and 2007 Laguna Phuket Triathlon champion, Massimo Cigana from Italy. Laguna’s reigning women’s champion Belinda Granger of Australia will defend her crown following her maiden victory last year. Now in its 16th year, the Laguna Phuket Triathlon is supported by the Tourism Authority of Thailand and Thai Airways International. For the fifth consecutive year entries to the individual race have completely sold out with 950 individual athletes registered. In addition, 50 teams will be taking part in the team relay and there are still places left to enter the 6k Fun Run.
