Africa-Press – Tanzania. <\/strong><\/span>The Team Belgium has withdrawn from Monday’s Paris 2024 triathlon relay after an Olympian fell sick.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the team said that Belgian triathlete Claire Michel, one of the members of the relay, is “unfortunately ill and has to withdraw from the competition.”<\/p>\n

The same source added that after consultation with the athletes and their entourage, the Belgian team will not “take part in the mixed relay at the Paris Olympic Games tomorrow.”<\/p>\n

On July 31, Michel, 35, swam in the River Seine during an Olympic triathlon event in women’s individual.<\/p>\n

French sports daily L’Equipe said that Michel has been taken to a hospital after she was infected with E.coli.<\/p>\n

The first training session for triathletes at the Paris Olympics was previously canceled due to pollution in the River Seine, the organizers said last weekend.<\/p>\n

Then women and men’s triathlon events were held on July 31.<\/p>\n

France’s Cassandre Beaugrand (women’s individual), and Team Great Britain’s Alex Yee (men’s individual) won gold medals each at Paris 2024 triathlon on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The Olympics will end on Aug. 11.<\/p>\n
