Paris 2024 Olympic Triathlon Training Canceled Due to £1bn Seine Pollution
Jul 28, 2024, 08:32 AM
The first training swim of triathletes at the Paris 2024 Olympics was canceled due to high pollution levels in the Seine River. The decision was prompted by torrential rains that have been falling in Paris for the last two days, leading to deteriorating water quality. Despite a £1bn effort to clean the river, the pollution levels were deemed unsafe for athletes. The cancellation affects the pre-race triathlon event scheduled for Sunday. The decision to cancel training was made on the night from Saturday to Sunday, according to Le Parisien.
