Still fresh from retaining her triathlon crown Saturday, Mangrobang showed no signs of slowing down as she captured the duathlon title at the Sunset Bay in Tuan Chau.

She timed 2 hours, 13 minutes and 12 seconds ahead of silver winner Malaysia’s Tahira Nanmunisaa Muhammad Zaid (2:14:22) and Indonesia’s Zahra Putri Bulan Aprillia (2:14:49), who claimed silver and bronze, respectively.

Mangrobang’s feat ended the country’s triathlon/duathlon campaign with three gold medals, one silver and one bronze.
