Manage episode 429234021 series 2098285
The Paris Olympics are just nine days away.
As of this morning, the New Zealand team has been finalised, with 195 athletes covering 23 sports.
Chef de Mission for the Kiwi contingent Nigel Avery is on the ground in Paris, settling into the athletes’ village and preparing for the arrival of the team.
He told Mike Hosking that when it comes to the River Seine, the weather is the main problem.
Avery said that when it rains the runoff causes problems, but the next ten days are forecast to be dry.
If all else fails and the Seine is too dangerous to swim in, the triathlon will simply become a duathlon.
“At the end of the day though, it is what it is.”
