Marathon swimmers dive into the Seine River amid concerns about the safety of swimming in the long-polluted river.

World Aquatics got the go-ahead around 4 a.m. Wednesday morning after daily testing showed the water was safe.

The women's 10k marathon race will be held Thursday , followed by the men's race on Friday .

This is the first time that Olympic open water is being held in a river.

The Seine current has been measured at 2-3 mph , a significant challenge when swimming upstream.

Triathlon events have already been held in the river, though the schedule was upended by readings.
