The Seine is closed for swimming training also on Sunday ahead of Monday's triathlon mixed relay due to poor water quality.

Heavy rainfall upstream of Paris on Thursday evening is said to have caused pollution in the water. The training sessions ahead of Monday's mixed relay in triathlon have now been cancelled both on Saturday and Sunday.

The organizer is still hopeful of being able to hold the mixed relay in triathlon on Monday and will make a decision early in the morning.

We expect improvements in the weather forecast, says spokesperson Anne Descamps.

In addition to Monday's competition, the basic plan is for the women's and men's long-distance swimming to take place in the Seine on Thursday and Friday next week.
