Oh, Good Lord!! (And starring no one you've ever heard of!)
And speaking of the Seine (from today's Yahoo Sports):
The Paris Olympics begin in 50 days, but questions persist about whether
the heavily-polluted River Seine will be ready for its close-up, Jeff
writes.
Where things stand: The Seine will host the Opening Ceremony, with each
nation's delegation being ferried down the river. It will also host the
marathon swim and triathlon-- a bold endeavor considering Parisians
haven't been able to swim in the polluted waters since 1923.
Swimming test events were canceled last summer due to water quality
concerns, and similar levels of contamination were reported in April by
a French environmental group, which said that "pollution of fecal
origin" was higher than permitted.
This is what I've never understood about the folks that compete in that New
York City Triathlon. I mean, people who are triathletes are generally the type
of people who are health conscious and care about their bodies, and then they
go and compete in an event that requires them to dive into the murky, chemical
stew known as the Hudson River and swim several miles.
