An event staffer at an international boat racing competition anxiously examined the long, cylindrical floats lining the roughly 2,000-meter course at the Sea Forest Waterway in the capital’s Koto Ward.
“I hope none of them are attached to the devices,” the staff member said, worriedly gazing into the water as if a monster was lurking below the surface.
The staffer was working at a May event for selecting athletes to compete in the upcoming Games, held at the same location where the rowing and canoeing events are scheduled for the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics.
