YOKOHAMA - JAPAN'S nuclear reactor crisis has forced the postponement of a world championship triathlon race in Yokohama next month because of radiation fears, the International Triathlon Union (ITU) said on Tuesday.

The race, originally scheduled for May 14, would require athletes to swim 1.5km in Yokohama harbour, some 300km south of the Fukushima nuclear plant crippled by last month's 9.0 magnitude earthquake and massive tsunami wave.
