paris organisers confident triathlon will go ahead

Paris 2024 organisers are confident that the Olympic triathlon events will proceed as scheduled from Tuesday, despite concerns over pollution in the River Seine.

Two swimming training sessions were canceled on Sunday and Monday due to water quality issues.

Heavy rain in Paris last week has impacted the water quality, and temperatures are expected to reach 34°C on Tuesday, when the mens event is scheduled.

The mens event is set to begin at 08:00 local time (07:00 GMT), with a final decision to be made at 04:00 (03:00 GMT).

The womens event is scheduled for Wednesday, and the mixed team competition will take place on Monday, August 5.
