In this jam-packed episode, the hosts tackle everything from triathlon struggles to unexpected life curveballs. 🏊‍♂️🚴‍♂️🏃‍♂️ Layton’s got a new ride (but is it faster than his run splits?), a prank pregnancy test sparks momentary chaos, and someone’s paying the price for slacking—with a raw egg punishment. 🥚🤢

Speaking of eggs, Sarah shares a very questionable travel story involving a trip to Thailand and an egg experience she will never forget. Let’s just say... some things once seen, can’t be unseen. 👀🐣

This episode is all about getting to know Lleyton—his triathlon journey, his motivations, and how he balances training with real life. The crew also breaks down their recent Malulaba race, where a last-minute switch turned it into a duathlon, forcing some to rethink their strategy. They discuss the sting of a DNF (Did Not Finish), and whether the financial side of triathlon—entry fees vs. prize money—really adds up.

Plus, the future of the sport, long-course racing, and the rise of the T100 format shaking up the scene.

A little chaos, a lot of laughs, and some real talk about endurance sports—this one's got it all!

We’re doing a "Get to Know Lockie" special—because, honestly, who even is this guy? While Sare battles through a questionable hangover, Lockie takes center stage to share his journey from surf lifesaving to triathlon, reflecting on his early days in the sport, the challenges he’s faced, and what keeps him coming back for more.

Along the way, we dive into the latest AFL and NRL updates, debate the rise of German triathletes, and discuss why short course athletes are suddenly dominating long course events. Lockie also revisits some of his most questionable race-day fashion choices, including a tri-suit moment he’d probably rather forget. We wrap things up with highlights from 70.3 Geelong and some bold predictions for Ironman South Africa.

Tune in for laughs, questionable life choices, and a deep dive into the man the myth the legend that is Lockie Jones.

This week on The Unfunded Podcast, the crew takes on floods, fierce racing, and the fine art of not getting hit by cars. 🌊🏆 From the Devonport Oceania Championships to training disasters that would make even the toughest triathletes cry into their protein shakes, it’s been a week.

We chat race performances, the emotional rollercoaster of competing, and why triathlon still pays less than your average lemonade stand. (Seriously, why are we doing this again? 🤔) Plus, we spotlight an emerging female athlete who’s shaking up the scene and debate whether triathlon needs more indoor events or just better snacks.

Oh, and if you've ever had a car come a little too close while cycling, we’ve got some thoughts (and a strongly worded message for reckless drivers). Buckle up—it’s a wild one. 🎙️🚴‍♀️

Listen now for podium predictions, questionable financial decisions, and near-death experiences.
