Please not another year.😊 - History shows that great athletes did well to end their active careers when it was time. I think, it's time now. Especially after his great win @PTO US Open. Leaving the party at the right time is (mostly) a wise decision! This is also what distinguishes an exceptional athlete & human. In my eyes, Jan is both. I'm German, admire Jan and without him I might not have started our great sport a few years ago...yes, I "love" him & I hope he sticks to his decision. Greetings from Berlin🙋♂️
History shows one thing…. We all die and never return. Life is not a fairytale so why seek a fairytale ending.? If you love what you do then do it for as long as you physically can and milk every ounce you can out of this life while you can. You’re retired a long time. If he still has the fire to train and compete then keep going.
I dunno. I absolutely get exiting at the right time... but also maybe coming back like so many of the greats in other sports did? Triathlon is young... what if he took a full year off, and then returned for a triumph run at Kona when the men go back? Then he could have 2024 off and plan to come back for one last loop on the island - send him off in even greater style?
He should retire because he wants to. There would be absolutely nothing wrong with him continuing and falling back in the field for years IF he wanted to keep racing though.
I can’t remember Triathlon without Jan in the top flight, but Father Time waits for no man. There are so many young athletes pushing the standard ever further now, the competition is brutal. Still, it’s wonderful to see one of the all time greats still pushing.
@@yesitis1395 Agree. But I also think that's just a fan problem, it's not fair to strip Jan of more fun because some fans have imaginary beef with other fans, but that's just me, would love to see Jan for another year.
Great video! PTO is the best thing happened in triathlon recently! Ironman brand sucks, separated men’s and women’s in Kona was awful! Many tradicional races without PRO field…..
Not few suspect a form of doping. Seen nothing else like that in the running world. Maybe a future Lance Armstong moment. Which was clear for me from the start. I would not be suprised. Or he has some special geenes, and or there is a special norwegen training secret. Time will tell. But he supposed to have 74-76 kg which is in line. Maybe very light bone structure 176 is not tall.
I loved BJ Penn. But him trying to lengthen his career ruined my ability to win bar arguments about BJ beating everyone for all time. Be done, Jan. Be done.
I say go for it, my dream is to win the hawii ironman at age 55:) and will say, my dream, is alive and kicking, who am i,I AM , youtubeman, and I want to race the best of the best:) and age is just a number, that demons are afraid of, and if you are not a demon, then age works like it does for trees, we get stronger the older we get:)
He is going to get paid STUPID money by the PTO to race another year! The amount of media involvement and viewership he will bring to the sport is unrealistic even if he doesn't race competitively.
Frodo seems (based on his interviews) like a smug f**k and I hope he loses. But at least that means I want to watch. So I suppose he's good for the sport!
Yeah. Lacks humility. Thinks too much of himself. Look at Messi. Even though it is another sport, he is the undisputed goat and it never got to his head, showing humility is a quality you have or you don’t. Just winning lots of championships doesn’t mean you must be cocky. I don’t like him either.
LIKE if you want Jan Frodeno to race one more year!
Nah. Go out as close to the top as you can. He isn't getting any closer to the top.
No need already, age is not on his side anymore. Jan is the forever champ =)

@@dbo4506I understand your point of view, D Bo. I have a slightly different perspective. We have different opinions - and - that's completely ok.😉

Your work is a masterpiece! -- "Believe in your abilities."
"1 more year, 1 more year, 1 more year..."
I think that wouldn't be a wise decision. Anyway... 'like your content.👌 Greets from Germany🙋♂️
👎 Trav. Legends grow with mystique. You don't want Jan's legacy to be, "Jan... in his prime... could've beat __."
@@yesitis1395 Agree. But I also think that's just a fan problem, it's not fair to strip Jan of more fun because some fans have imaginary beef with other fans, but that's just me, would love to see Jan for another year.
How?
@@emmanuelnocete135its not fair to push for him to have another year either if he doesn't tell us he wants it.
Please come back… 1 more year.
great video..I enjoyed it and hope Jan will battle with him again.
I wudnt like I wud love Jan to go a few more years, he is the ultimate GOAT
You just came back Jan. I'm surethere's more juice in there.
What a documentary!!!
Great video!

The goat...never write off a champion
Wondering again, how can be Blummenfeld this good with at least 7 kilos more then everybody else?🤔

7 kilos of extra lung.
It's his body composition, there are more variables than just weight
Thumbnail remembers of the bud Spencer movie "The Sheriff and the Satellite Kid" 😅
1 more year!
Yeeeh hard ❤️🔥🤌🏽😎🇧🇷
Lmao, just let him go, The GOAT has nothing left to prove.
Too bad he didn't race Kristian when kristian was aiming for long course. Now his main priority is short course. Next year even more.
What happened to Big Bear Sgrail 50 @JanFrodeno ?
I loved BJ Penn. But him trying to lengthen his career ruined my ability to win bar arguments about BJ beating everyone for all time. Be done, Jan. Be done.
11:26 if thats a song pls give me the id
It's called falling for me by Benson taylor
I think he wants kb to beat him
Click bait but bice Video anyway.
Not another year from now but from 2022! 😆

He is the 🐐 he can do one more year

Sounds not stupid 😂 just business
Too bad maxy smokeeed em
He just can lose. Time for new horizon. GOAT has to let it go...
