On the list of things that get better with age you wouldn't probably put triathletes but Jan Frodeno is proving that age is but a number after a commanding performance over the weekend leaving us to wonder, is there anyone who can beat him?

We also preview this weekend's St George 70.3, talk about Ironman taking away the swim and Daniela Ryf leaving her coach.

A news packed episode this week with so much to talk about including the Super League Arena Games, Ironman New Zealand, Geelong 70.3 and a look at the recent Tokyo qualification of Chris Thompson, an On sponsored athlete who wore a blacked out pair of Nike's with permission from On. This makes us ask the question, if every athlete is choosing to wear the Nike super shoes why would they ever sponsor an athlete again? Almost every pro athlete in any race now uses Nike if they are sponsored or not. So will we see an end to athlete sponsorship for shoes or will other brands catch up?
