Triathlon: The triathlon Olympic champion from Beijing, Jan Frodeno, successfully switched to the long distance this year. On Saturday he will make his Ironman debut in Hawaii.
“The race here in Hawaii is known for its extreme conditions in the form of heat and wind. And as a rule, a certain amount of experience in dealing with it doesn't hurt, especially in this race. I'm a rookie so I have to trust my preparation", so Frodeno, who is on an S-Works Shiv will tackle the bike course.
“But what helps me a lot is the knowledge that there is a lot of experience and success in my bike. That gives me a certain security for the long day on the highway. With the Shiv and my Specialized equipment, I'm well prepared for all conditions! The Shiv is definitely very fast – now it just has to be my legs too”, according to Jan Frodeno.
On the 180-kilometer bike test, Frodeno relies on a bike that is equipped with all aerodynamic advantages. The clever fit options are also characterized by the intelligent supply systems fuel cell and Fuel location .
After his successes this year, he is capable of a top placement.
