Olympics in Paris
Seine too dirty again: another training session canceled!
Before the mixed decision in the triathlon, another swimming training session in the Seine was canceled on Saturday at the Olympic Games in Paris. The reason given by the organizers was that the limit values had been exceeded in the morning.
The reason for this was the heavy rainfall in the French capital over the past few days. This had led to a drop in water quality.
But the weather forecast for the next few days is good
Head of organization Tony Estanguet emphasized that the health of the athletes should not be put at risk. However, he was confident that the competitions could take place next week as planned: The weather forecast for the next few days looks good, he said in a press conference.
The running and cycling training sessions took place as originally scheduled. The mixed is scheduled for Monday (8 am). After that, the open water swimming events in the Seine are scheduled for Thursday and Friday.
