Aug. 13 : A Louisiana man called upon his Olympic spirit to make the best of flooded streets and heavy rain in the area.
Jo Guidry, a triathlete from New Iberia, shared video of himself swimming laps in a knee-deep pool of water alongside a local road.
“Watching the Olympics + living in South Louisiana,” he wrote.
Olympians in Rio also faced unusual water conditions, as water in a diving pool turned green prior to the women’s synchronised 10m platform event on Tuesday. Upi.com
