By IANS News July 31, 2024 • 11:22 AM View: 714

Paris Olympcis: The Olympic women's and men's triathlon events will proceed on Wednesday, as recent tests showed the Seine river is clean enough for competition.

The men's event was due to take place on Tuesday morning, but due to the water quality of the Seine, the triathletes were notified that the event has been postponed.

"The results of the latest water analyses, received at 3.20am, have been assessed as compliant by World Triathlon, allowing for the triathlon competitions to take place," Paris 2024 organisers and World Triathlon said, as quoted by BBC.
