Swim stopped due to poor water quality and the second para parathlon international competition August 17th 9:58
The Para Triathlon international tournament, which also served as the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics test tournament, was held at Tokyo Odaiba Seaside Park, the venue for the actual performance. Because it was detected, the swim was canceled and it was changed to a duathlon with the second type of run and bike.
The tournament, which also served as a test tournament, has been held on the 15th around Odaiba Seaside Park, the venue for the next year's Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games.
According to the meeting executive committee, the triathlon men's race scheduled for the morning of the 16th was held as usual, but the water quality inspection conducted at 1 pm on the 16th was twice the standard set by the international competition organization. It means that more than E. coli was detected.
For this reason, the international competition of Para Triathlon, scheduled for 17th, was changed to a duathlon with a second run and bike, with the swim canceled.
