Swimming in the Seine is kinda of a sad running joke here since Jacques Chirac, then Paris Major, promised that he will personally swim in it after he cleans it. Which he obviously never did.

 

Hopefully, everything will be ok.

Back in the 30s there used to be regular swimming races in the Seine. People had different perceptions of risk in those days though.  :smoke:

Must be said, :GBR is having a fantastic summer with a lot of new or confirming very solid gold medal contenders.

 

 

Doesn’t work with every sport every time, but with the Lottery funding system being 25 years old, we have got a lot of experience in managing an Olympic cycle & peaking at the right time.
