The men’s Olympic triathlon planned for Tuesday has been postponed over concerns about water quality in Paris’ Seine River, where the swimming portion of the race was supposed to take place.
Organizers said they will try to hold the men’s triathlon Wednesday instead. The women’s competition is also scheduled on Wednesday, but both are subject to water tests. Friday is also planned as a backup date.
But Meteo-France, the French weather service, was forecasting storms Tuesday night, light rain Wednesday afternoon and storms Thursday, which could complicate rescheduling the events.
They did a whole thing on TV where the mayor swam in the water.
Did
heshe actually do that? I heard there was an app to tell people along its route exactly when to shit in it so it would make it to Paris around the timeheshe was swimming.Edit: my bad. Apparently the mayor is a woman.
Mayor is a woman, I saw a clip of it while my parent were watching the news.

Yea, it was fine, but then there was a major rogue summer storm during the inauguration 🤣 right over Paris.
which washed all the shit into la Seine and…well…it’s shitty again. Literally yelling at a cloud for ruining it.
Nice
