[Water quality and athletes' health: One hundred years on, swimming is once again possible in the Seine].

A great deal of work has been undertaken to ensure that certain swimming events (open water and triathlon) at the Olympic and Paralympic Games can be held in the Seine under sanitary conditions that respect the health of the athletes. They will be the first to take the plunge in this river, but the aim is to speed up the process of making it possible for the people of Ile-de-France to swim in it too, as well as in the Marne.
