The Seine is now clean enough for an Olympic triathlon
Paris, July 31 (Hibya) - Triathlon Denmark's sports director and manager, Rasmus Henning, has announced that the Seine River is now clean enough for the World Triathlon Federation.
The Seine's water was not clean enough for triathletes to swim in, but this morning's new tests show that the river is clean enough for an Olympic triathlon.
Olympic organizers have spent billions of Euros to make the water in the Seine clean enough for triathletes to swim in.
In fact, the men should have already finished the race and handed out the medals, but yesterday morning, organizers postponed the men's competition until this morning to find out if the water in perhaps the most talked-about river in the world is clean enough.
By 4 am this morning, there was uncertainty as to whether the competitions could be held.
The World Triathlon Federation announced that the Olympic triathlon would take place in X with the message “We swim”.
