FINA officials conducted a random drawing and assigned the following numbers and start positions of the men's Olympic 10K Marathon Swim.
The lower numbers will start closest to the shore, near the stands. The higher numbers will start towards the middle of the course, away from the stands. The first turn buoy will be 150 meters from the start pontoon which means the start will be fast, furious and will definitely lead to bumping and crashing of bodies around the buoy.
