    The swimmers competed minutes ago and battled hard toward the podium. Team Canada held onto fourth place for most of the seven-minute race, briefly slipping to fifth place, and finished with a time of 7:50.65.

    The United States won gold in the event with a time of 7:42.92, Australia took silver with a time of 7:44.41 and France won bronze with a time of 7:47.49.
