Jan Frodeno: Breakfast with Bob from Kona 2017 Pre-Race

The two-time defending Ironman World Champion Jan Frodeno talked with us about what he learned from last year's race, and what it's like to balance life as a professional athlete and a dad.

What log is that on his hat...seems obvious, but cant place it!

[@eva-marianeveling715]

It's Ryzon, his clothing sponsor.

[@johannespfaff7539]

Ryzon.

[@keeweewee]

Five comments and four of them about his change of becoming a vegetarian. Seriously ?

PLANT POWER

How can you combine nutritional arguments with ethical arguments. its like combining running shoe tech with wetsuit tech, theres no place for it. There is now a good chance Kienle pushes him all the way to Ali'i drive. Jan you simply cannot perform in the crucial moments in a race without RBC/IGF/TEST numbers lowered. He will still be good enough to win i bet. He feels good because of the ton of additional nutrients and anti-oxidants he's getting. Duh!

[@francisbombus3949]

"How can you combine nutritional arguments with ethical arguments." why not?

[@francisbombus3949]

i'm vegetarian since 30 years, 7 years vegan. I'm fit and healthy. Watch the movie "WHAT THE HEALTH" and read this: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19562864

[@francisbombus3949]

animal products are every mans poison...bad for the animals and the environment too. Whatch the movie "Cowspiracy" and "WHAT THE HEALTH" (both are availible on netflix)

[@francisbombus3949]

nice bullshit bingo 😂

[@nicksmith-chandler458]

organicsuperman read carefully, I predicted Jan would NOT perform being Vegan.

[@brandonweinert7954]

Jan does not look so good here. Looks like he could use a cheeseburger.
