SYDNEY - Olympic champions Jan Frodeno and Emma Snowsill believe the International Triathlon Union should cancel the world championship series race in Yokohama, Japan next month.
Yokohama is 300 kilometres south of the crippled Fukushima nuclear reactor, where millions of litres of radioactive water have leaked into the ocean.
The athletes are scheduled to swim 1.5 kilometres in Yokohama Harbour to start the race, which is an Olympic qualifying event.
