Not that there has been a season to speak of, but today Jan Frodeno confirmed what observers had picked up from his social posts.
The three-time Ironman World Champion is definitively out of any racing in 2020 as he heals up from injuries sustained in a bike crash descending Montseny near Barcelona with training partner Nick Kastelein.
Nick, who sustained a fractured pelvis, provided more context in his post.
While Jan is reclusive when it comes to posting about the specific details of his training, he opened up about the crash in a few posts and stories about going to hospital for scans.
We wish Jan and Nick a speedy path to recovery and fitness and hope that 2021 is a better year for racing for everyone.
