Where triathlon meets real talk. Hosted by two seasoned triathletes and one Sarah, this podcast takes a deep dive into the controversies, challenges, and triumphs of the triathlete world.
00;00;04;22 - 00;00;20;10
Lleyton
Oh, he goes in front. Bradley would help the younger every ounce of courage. Unbelievable. Doc, look at this. Nothing but fantastic. Racer driving and world championship title.
00;00;20;13 - 00;00;35;08
Lockie
And welcome back to season two, episode six six. Yeah, I think we think we're going to run with it. Episode six of the unfunded podcast. As always, I'm Alan Jones, your host, with my good friend Leighton Wall.
00;00;35;08 - 00;00;38;24
Lleyton
And it's the unfunded podcast for another week in your ears.
00;00;38;25 - 00;00;56;07
Lockie
Yeah, we love it. We do love it. It's been a pretty it's been a huge week. There's actually a lot to talk about. Yeah, we're super excited. Like we said last week, with, obviously, other than our chat with Diego, racing is back. Yeah, in the thick of it now everything's kind of going on. You have the long course?
00;00;56;07 - 00;01;16;12
Lockie
Yes. That's going on now, but the short course is pumping where we're in the middle, where in the start of the season, oh, days even now we're looking at obviously we're trying to get a good grip on I guess all shore course racing and which on a recap, one race, whilst we're also trying to brave you preview the next one.
00;01;16;12 - 00;01;36;07
Lockie
So it's only a week apart. Yeah, exactly. It's all kicking off and we had lands already last week. Yeah. First World Cup of the year to High Cal this week we would have had Abu Dhabi. Yeah, that's canceled. That's right. Yeah. So it's all kicking off which is good. Yeah. You were racing on the weekend. Lucky I was racing once again.
00;01;36;09 - 00;01;52;04
Lockie
It was okay. I'll. I'll take it. You know, it was probably one of the best, I think Oceania fields we've had in quite a while at that race. I mean, yeah, other than. Yeah, Matty has, And you hate him wild and possibly Tyler Reed and myself. And.
00;01;52;04 - 00;01;57;05
Lleyton
Sorry, I saw that clip. That. Yeah. You said yeah.
00;01;57;07 - 00;02;14;08
Lockie
On the Troy. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I made sure, I made sure I I'll put you in that one, but it was probably straight off the pod. Yeah. Probably was, but yeah. Other than, you to the like, we basically had a full Aussie contingent. Yeah. So it was good to sort of. I guess, in the early parts of the season suss out.
00;02;14;08 - 00;02;33;06
Lockie
So. Well, yeah. Was it yourself? Yeah. It wasn't really my day overall. But you know, I was happy that I think my swim box there, I'm clearly, you know, a front pack sort of athlete at the moment. So, yeah, just got to keep getting better and better and faster and hopefully it's early days. Yeah, exactly. I mean, it's always tough Devonport though.
00;02;33;06 - 00;02;49;24
Lockie
Always like hey yeah yeah. And and on is obviously well we'll get into it. But there's some boys that you know Virginia Terry, they're ripping and tearing right now. Luke Williams is going to be. Yeah. So to watch he's had two very good seasons. Maybe this is easy. It could be we slept on him a little bit.
00;02;49;24 - 00;03;10;11
Lockie
Might have slept on him because yeah he was. He was out for blood on the weekend and, yeah, he made sure he got it. But obviously as, an athlete and a spectator of the sport watching lanes, everybody on the weekend was, oh, my God, they can run some rapid times. Yeah, all of them. Yeah. Farrell.
00;03;10;11 - 00;03;31;15
Lockie
It was it was insane. And we'll get to Lanzarote now in a moment. We've also got a couple. We're not going to preview them too much because we're obviously very much, short course focused, but pretty big events going on in Australia as well. We've got two 100 Gold Coast this weekend. Yep. And Geelong 70.3, which is pretty much a world champs.
00;03;31;18 - 00;03;44;23
Lockie
It's a world champs field styles. We don't we don't really. We said at the start of the year we're not going to talk about much long course. But that is a race we can't really skip, especially when it's on our doorstep. Like just down well down the road, a few hours.
00;03;44;25 - 00;03;45;17
Lleyton
In Geelong it's.
00;03;45;17 - 00;04;06;06
Lockie
Real flat. So for most of the 16 hours in the car, yeah, most other people crossing three countries to get to something like that, but it's just down the road for us. Yeah. But we'll gain to them a bit later. We going straight into lens really? Yeah. Let's just go straight into lens. So lens of Raleigh obviously first World Cup of the year.
00;04;06;08 - 00;04;30;29
Lockie
And is the sprint finish the new the new norm. I, I, I think so wise especially in a sprint distance race. That's where I was thinking, especially in the sprint distance race with that kind of dynamic. I mean, we guess that they were going to be because of the wind, because of the open roads. Like even though it was quite hilly, I still thought with that kind of field that I thought the women might break up a little bit more.
00;04;30;29 - 00;04;59;10
Lockie
But with the men, I definitely thought it was probably going to come together. Yeah. And we saw that with our picks. You know, if we're picking a breakaway, we're probably not picking David. Right. However, yeah, it was definitely sort of I was super surprised with the people that were there, especially in the men like Team Hellwig I thought was going to be good, but, yeah, especially those returning athletes off, like a bit of a stint of, you know, not racing Sophie.
00;04;59;11 - 00;05;18;21
Lockie
Yeah. There's also this fit. Yeah. Incredible. Good. Good result. Georgia Taylor-brown who hasn't race much short course in second. Yeah. Pretty good result. Don't admit though the picks yours were pretty good. I'm just going to say I picked all three girls. I didn't pick them in the correct order, but I picked the top three. Yeah, I was very.
00;05;18;22 - 00;05;37;10
Lockie
You slept on Nina? Yeah, a little bit. Did. She was a great athlete last year. Got a few World Cup wins. I'm not sure about a World Series podium, but she was very dominant in the back end of last year in the World Cup scene. So yeah, I thought the German was going to come out strong. I had just obviously Laura Lindemann, her sprint finish in Paralympics, Olympics.
00;05;37;10 - 00;05;57;23
Lockie
I thought she would get one up over Georgia Taylor-brown but didn't know, which is probably in my opinion, where I think and speaking to. I think we spoke the same about last week in terms of the Brits and they really. Yeah. Did they make the wrong did the British team in 2024 make the wrong decision putting Beth put a loss in not Georgia Taylor-brown.
00;05;57;24 - 00;06;17;13
Lockie
Yeah. Because you see I mean well she's got that sprint finish in exactly. And Sam did say that she had anchored a few times. So maybe maybe they'll change it up for a couple years time. I mean, very good that she's just come back from like, we said, the T 100 sort of long course saying and just slotted straight back in like it's nothing.
00;06;17;14 - 00;06;40;24
Lockie
That's very impressive. My I have a point was, is the World Cup style of racing because the back end of last year and we also see the South American World Cups very run dominant. And we'll get into like how which is next week also very run dominant gusting really run dominant. It's it's filthy. Yeah. Is the World Cup race like as a whole.
00;06;40;24 - 00;07;06;29
Lockie
The World Cup series more of a run dominant series than I know. The World Series is also very like it. They're very quick as well, but it kind of breaks up a bit more on the box, you know what I'm saying? Like the ten person breakaway is like, you are like we had in the World Series. Yeah, it does seem to be that way nearly every well, I mean, other than maybe like, yeah, it is as the Chengdu I know there was a two up there.
00;07;07;01 - 00;07;24;06
Lockie
I'm trying to think of ones that weren't televised. I used to be a World Cup. Yeah, that was really hard. That was always a that was always split out. Anything that was really like either, DC has a three lap swim course. Yeah. That amount of turning in a swim breaks up the swim, breaks up the bike. Yeah.
00;07;24;06 - 00;07;42;12
Lockie
It's it's easy to get away there. It's also a fast, dynamic course that Chengdu is a big loop. So you don't see people. It's it's hard to see people. So I understand that Karlovy Vary obviously got the hills. It completely depends on the course dynamic. Yeah. Like it really. It really depends on the course. But yeah. Saturation of athlete.
00;07;42;18 - 00;08;03;21
Lockie
Yes. More of a runner I guess would identify themselves as a triathlete. As a runner. Yeah. Maybe that's like a deeper field there of runners in World Cups. And World Series. Even like the World Series they can run quicker. Yeah, quicker or just as fast. Maybe they're a bit more of a swim bike dominant athlete. It's almost like what?
00;08;03;24 - 00;08;29;09
Lockie
So we would say probably our best swimmer in the World Series right now. You go to Mark Devi. Yeah. Mark Devi and his weakness would probably be his run. Would Mark Davies position in a world Series probably be roughly the same as his position that he would get in a World Cup ten because he doesn't have the mat houses, Henry Graf's, Westerns, you know, those kind of caliber of swim, swim, bike as well to then carry him away in the World Cup.
00;08;29;09 - 00;08;41;24
Lockie
Yeah, yeah, he's got to be forcibly in a run his race. Yeah. You look at Chengdu. Chengdu. He was in that breakaway then, but we kind of swallowed him up and he was sort of 20th, which is roughly around where he gets in World Series. Yeah. There you are.
00;08;41;25 - 00;08;43;24
Lleyton
That's our little, little analysis.
00;08;43;25 - 00;08;47;12
Lockie
It's the World Cup. It sucks to be a swim blocker in a World Cup. You look at it.
00;08;47;12 - 00;08;48;13
Lleyton
Does he looks.
00;08;48;13 - 00;09;07;11
Lockie
Like it does. Eagle deploys the Frenchman. He had a he had the fastest swim time by 10s in lanes and Ronaldo in there freaks in like I I've started next to him in Chengdu. I thought I had quick get out until I swam next to him and he was. He had a body length on me by 100m, like an incredible swimmer.
00;09;07;13 - 00;09;27;29
Lockie
So like, and he, I think he swam away from Mark dovey in DC as well. Like really, really good swimmer. But at the World Cup level, don't get me wrong, he was still he was still up there, but not not not as yeah fly off is what he might have been or carried off. There just wasn't enough people there to be able to block away with.
00;09;27;29 - 00;09;46;07
Lockie
Yeah. So yeah, I feel as if that's the same in the women's as well. Well like last year it was very breakaway dominant maybe the World Cup. So more run dominant comes together, which is really obviously like not ideal if you're a swim bike. I try to obviously trying to gain points. Oh yeah. Yeah I mean like if you yeah.
00;09;46;08 - 00;10;05;28
Lockie
Move your way up into the World Series. Like I said, all the time, I think I do. I'm probably more on the mark device. I do, I think I'm better in a, I probably get the same result in a World Series that I wouldn't a World Cup because I at least had people to ride with. Hopefully it will be interesting to see how these athletes go at the start of the season, and we'll see them maybe progressing to the World Series.
00;10;05;29 - 00;10;32;29
Lockie
Yeah, and see how they go versus their World Cup results versus, well, series. Yeah. Well maybe we'll jump back to that later in the year. The other thing that I took from this, and I think it's a I think it's going to be great for short course World Triathlon because we're going to see you've essentially got at the end of 2024, you had your Olympic cycle that obviously is like the big sort of drawcard for people to come into shore course.
00;10;33;04 - 00;11;00;25
Lockie
So like, for example, you had you had in Wales, George Tyler Brown, Kate was just dominate the year. Yeah, very strong basically showed that they're the best athletes in short course at the Olympics and the World Series. They then go off and they've race to one hundreds. Same as Alex. Yeah. Did the mass cycle that they go do this side quest for a year whilst we've left Matt Houser Nina I'm David Cantero to sort of grow and blossom in the short course and I've gone world champions.
00;11;00;25 - 00;11;23;27
Lockie
I've won World Series. World Cups have blossomed in the short course. Now we've got these long course guys like we saw Georgia, Tyler Brown. So if you call Sophie Evans sort of come back, are they going to be as competitive? It's almost like we've got it's it's the battle of going long coming back. Yeah. Which people like George Tyler Brown I think we'll be fine.
00;11;23;27 - 00;11;43;28
Lockie
I think George Tyler Brown was fine. Wide will probably be fine with the more short course training. What I think it's done and it's probably given a really positive effect to the short course saying is the density of high end athletes we now have. We're not going to have, you know, a race and you go, Alex, race in the style this well might as well give him the gold medal now.
00;11;43;28 - 00;12;05;27
Lockie
Yeah, exactly. That house is there. Give him the gold medal. Now. We already know he's won. Yeah. So dynamic at the moment. We I guess like the people who have who are coming up for this next cycle, but then also the ones that went away and are coming back. Yeah. Well, like, that's exactly like it has. I said to, you know, when he started doing okay, just let the me we're not just going to let them walk back in and think that they can run the show.
00;12;05;28 - 00;12;23;05
Lockie
You know, like we have to fight for what we've grown and what we've developed here. Yeah. Let's like, put up a fight. And they did. So that's going to ask you, Alex and you Hayden Waltz to step up. Same as Georgia Tyler Brown and Sophie Evans. Like they're going to have to step up now Kate Wolfe when she comes back you're gonna have to step up and really like prove your point.
00;12;23;06 - 00;12;40;07
Lockie
Yeah. You know what the best. Yeah. Exactly. Right. And I think oh I think all that's going to do we're going to have a bigger density of high performing athletes. It's going to be back to the golden era days, where we have ten, 15 guys that could cost the girls that could win it. It's literally going to be, how is this race going to play out?
00;12;40;08 - 00;12;57;06
Lockie
Is this going to be a run race? Because then these 5 to 10 people can win it. If it's going to be a breakaway, then these 5 to 10 people can win it. And you don't know what what kind of way that could swing off. Right. And maybe the course is what will break that up. Yeah. Most and hopefully we see those exciting courses hopefully exactly developing.
00;12;57;07 - 00;13;19;00
Lockie
Hopefully that encourages more exciting courses like you you calombaris and yeah, in London, if it's in a, you know, a nicer, you know, novel. Yeah. Like put it in a park a little like Leeds course is super challenging. So yeah hopefully hopefully that excites. Hopefully that incites more. Yeah. Exciting competition. We also got our first look at the live stream.
00;13;19;00 - 00;13;37;08
Lockie
That's where I was just about to say. Yeah. You didn't get a chance to watch it. No, it was very early. So the only reason I watched it was because Rory, and I were driving home from Devonport to the airport at 3 a.m. or something. First look at the live stream. And you know what? Now that I've already paid the money.
00;13;37;10 - 00;13;58;13
Lockie
Yeah, it's worth it. It's worth it. Okay. That's good. They've made some really good changes. Like, I think first World Cups were free as well. Exactly that. That's we like free stuff. Free stuff? People like free stuff. Want to give us free stuff? Yeah, send it this way. But the the app itself, it looked really professional. It looked really set up the interviews beforehand.
00;13;58;15 - 00;14;21;01
Lockie
Kind of like the graphics sort of leading in. It felt like, you know, when Cato kind of put there really high definition, like really cool screens. Yeah, it just kind of amped it up a little bit. I've got I've got one problem and that is the commentary. So obviously they haven't got because they're not in a booth like we saw Belinda and Will.
00;14;21;02 - 00;14;39;08
Lockie
Yeah. No. On Google going. They're not on ground. They've not got the professional set up that they're clearly just watching from their computer at home on the live stream, probably just on a phone call in on a pair of headphones. Yeah. Those was really static. So like they were kind of interrupting each other. It was breaking in and out a little bit.
00;14;39;08 - 00;14;46;22
Lockie
So the commentary wasn't to crash it. Yeah, that was my only issue. Okay. But I've got two issues actually.
00;14;46;25 - 00;14;49;19
Lleyton
With the commentary, but they were our old commentators.
00;14;49;26 - 00;15;09;15
Lockie
Firstly, yeah, it was Trent. Yeah. So Trevor Harris is now moved down to two World Cup status World Cups. He's now World Cup status. He's been he's lost points, lost aura. And and we had it was Andy Emerson I who was who was. And then also it was Helen Jake Helen Jenkins I think I could forget they've got a few.
00;15;09;15 - 00;15;27;07
Lockie
I think they got a few backups. Yeah. Yep. I've got one sort of tip for Amazon and she, she ruined David Kent hero's moment in the sprint Stadium off. I don't know if I'd be pretty edged out by Anyway Trevor Harris was essentially,
00;15;27;10 - 00;15;28;05
Lleyton
Vintage Trevor.
00;15;28;05 - 00;15;44;18
Lockie
Harris. I was watching it and I got a little bit confused at what I was watching at some point, I was a little bit nervous. I had left a different browser open because, I'll play the tape and you tell me what the first thing you hear is. Okay, you tell me if there's something a bit off here.
00;15;44;23 - 00;15;49;27
Lockie
This is David Kintaro and Tim Hellwig sprint finish. Yep. I'm glad you've prefaced that.
00;15;49;29 - 00;16;01;28
Unknown
Well, because the cool kids are always trying to climb on his inside helmet. So strong can tell that was coming again. I can tell a superior sprint. It's got a winning bit.
00;16;02;00 - 00;16;11;01
Lleyton
I think we oh that's shocking. That is that's that's going could be one of the worst commentary.
00;16;11;01 - 00;16;24;08
Lockie
Moments ever in live sport. Imagine if she's learning. Oh I understand you're excited. Well, I understand Annie. It was a great spring finish like I was. I was also really excited watching.
00;16;24;10 - 00;16;27;08
Lleyton
You know, that excited. You ought to control yourself.
00;16;27;11 - 00;16;32;07
Lockie
Just a touch better than that. Like that was concerning.
00;16;32;09 - 00;16;39;21
Lleyton
But other than that, yeah. You maybe me. You might be. Just just leave it up to Trevor. Yeah.
00;16;39;22 - 00;16;48;22
Lockie
Honestly, I never, I never thought I would say all I wanted to hear was Trevor said it was sort of an endless and moaning in the background.
00;16;48;24 - 00;16;49;24
Lleyton
Other than that.
00;16;49;27 - 00;16;50;09
Lockie
Word, the.
00;16;50;09 - 00;16;52;09
Lleyton
Money I got was. That's good.
00;16;52;13 - 00;17;01;15
Lockie
If some people, you know, some people won't like it, it might it might have brought in a different demographic. Yeah. Maybe that's why you have to pay off. That's why I was behind a paywall.
00;17;01;18 - 00;17;03;07
Lleyton
Oh.
00;17;03;10 - 00;17;05;08
Lockie
All right. We're going to get. Let's stop that.
00;17;05;10 - 00;17;08;22
Lleyton
You've got to take away
00;17;08;24 - 00;17;15;14
Lockie
But yes. And improvements, which is good. Yeah. We're here for positive criticism. Yeah. Is that.
00;17;15;21 - 00;17;16;29
Lleyton
Yeah. That. No. Yeah, yeah.
00;17;16;29 - 00;17;23;11
Lockie
Constructive criticism. That's what I was going for. Constructive criticism. We're always here to help. Yeah. So how.
00;17;23;13 - 00;17;24;23
Lleyton
We emboldened. Yeah.
00;17;24;25 - 00;17;30;04
Lockie
Yeah, just just, make sure that when you get that first you takes. Yeah. Belinda. No moaning.
00;17;30;09 - 00;17;33;09
Lleyton
Just gotta be good. Thank you.
00;17;33;12 - 00;17;52;08
Lockie
Moving on. Next segment. We want to bring this back. I think we want to bring in, we did this. I think we probably did this twice. Oh, yeah. At the very, very start this time last year when we were brand new baby podcast. But now we've got, I think we've, you know, maybe left the mark a little bit on the short course world.
00;17;52;08 - 00;18;06;27
Lockie
Probably not yet, but maybe not. We want to bring in an athlete of the race and we want to bring that back. It's not going to be, you know, if you win it, you're going to get it every week. It's not the winner. Something that somebody something notable in the race respectful. And we've gone you know what? You might not have won.
00;18;06;27 - 00;18;27;15
Lockie
But that is something to be pointed out. Yeah. And this week Ryan, who was a it was Femi Zelaya's from Hungary and his allies. And I know you didn't say it. You didn't watch the race. I watched the real of it, though I did know heavy. Yeah. Okay, so for those who don't know Fanny, she's also 17.
00;18;27;17 - 00;18;44;05
Lockie
She's a 2008 baby. Wow. Young. Really young. And she and I feel like she's been on the scene for ages. Yeah. Made her debut in Super League when she was, like, 15 years old. So just a star of the future. Anyway, the Hungarian, she was first out of the water, first out of the water, and she crashed heavily.
00;18;44;07 - 00;19;05;13
Lockie
Yeah. We'll put a clip up of of obviously it's like not nice to say I guess, but literally hit a cone front, flip over the handlebars like heavy contact to the ground runs. The six fastest split of the day, a 17 055K run to finish ninth. That's ultra impressive that the fact that she just didn't give up tenacity.
00;19;05;17 - 00;19;22;25
Lockie
Massive like massive like as a such a young athlete, a 17 year old girl, you'd probably expect them to hit like that and have a cool what a day. Yeah, you'd expect I would probably do it if I copped a hit like that and fell over my handlebars. Have you defeated? I'd be sobbing.
00;19;23;01 - 00;19;24;01
Lleyton
Yeah, but.
00;19;24;02 - 00;19;35;04
Lockie
Yeah, to go around the six fastest run of the day in a field like that and to come ninth like massive was impressive. So athlete of the race kudos tiny slice. Oh.
00;19;35;06 - 00;19;58;00
Lockie
She's not going to. No she's not going to hear about it though. Can Hungarians. What do they speak. What what language are we. Sounds so yeah. Let's not get into let's not embarrass us. So so the under the next one. Okay. This is where I'm. I'm a bit annoyed. Oh. I'm annoyed. Angry. Lighten. Angry license here. And it's not nice.
00;19;58;01 - 00;20;18;24
Lockie
All right, I'll sit here and listen, because I got a little email on Friday afternoon. And the rice cells entered in. Got canceled. Yeah. So obviously I booked the Airbnb the day before. Booked the flights the month before. Some organized king. That's why you do what I do and just don't do it to.
00;20;18;24 - 00;20;21;29
Lleyton
The way you for. Yeah, but it cost more money.
00;20;21;29 - 00;20;24;14
Lockie
Now, you guys know why I do it.
00;20;24;16 - 00;20;25;16
Lleyton
But it's been canceled.
00;20;25;16 - 00;20;50;12
Lockie
Auckland County got canceled, and it's. It's pissed me off because it's two weeks before rice and realistically, two weeks before rice. You should know that you're going to cancel the event at least a month before. Yeah. And as athletes, if we get onto a start line and we get taken off the start line or we don't want to race within the week, we get very.
00;20;50;12 - 00;21;16;15
Lockie
Yeah, we get like a month, then you've got it. You've got a penalty. No no no no no no no that won't happen. But if we were to pull off an event rice the week before we get a penalty. Yeah. So got me thinking why did that? Why don't federations get penalties for pulling off races. That's a really that is because it was because to be honest, this is kind of shit from sailing.
00;21;16;16 - 00;21;36;20
Lockie
Yeah. They've pulled two races in the last two years. Yeah. That people have and and it's becoming a bit of a trend. Yeah. And you know if you're going to want to host races and you really, really want to, you know, host which it seems like they do. Yeah. Then pull off a race every single year. Should you be able to host rice.
00;21;36;20 - 00;21;57;26
Lockie
Yeah. If you should be like, somewhat, you know, limited to what you can hold that because understandably, obviously there's races and we're not talking about the races like Abu Dhabi. No no no no no. That's completely different. Completely different. That was also three week. They made that call early. They could have made Abu Dhabi call. You know last week.
00;21;57;26 - 00;22;19;18
Lockie
Yeah. Where they could have seen what was going on in that area obviously called slightly different circumstances. So like even if that one happened a week before, we don't expect you to keep the race running. Yeah, that is something different, but I believe. Do you do you know why have they told you I know. So from my understanding it was because and I what's the word?
00;22;19;21 - 00;22;27;21
Lockie
I can say this without getting in trouble. Like not an accusation. I'm not trying to accuse allegedly.
00;22;27;23 - 00;22;28;17
Lleyton
I allegedly.
00;22;28;23 - 00;22;50;03
Lockie
That's the one that saves us from, getting in trouble for allegedly that it was, because they haven't got the amount of age group participation numbers that they thought they were. So they've now got the money to fund the event. Yeah. Which I think is pretty upsetting that you're reliant on, on the age group to make the money.
00;22;50;03 - 00;23;09;11
Lockie
Exactly. Because exactly like this. You guys are all out of pocket now. You've had to go through insurance to cover your yeah, cover your costs. But yeah. And you're right, this is the second time it's happened in Triathlon New Zealand. So do you reckon that I should unban or like I think they're saying New Zealand itself, but like any kind of federation that.
00;23;09;17 - 00;23;11;04
Lleyton
Yeah I'm happy to.
00;23;11;10 - 00;23;34;28
Lockie
Have your race canceled a month in advance. Yeah. Fair enough cuz things happen. Yeah. It shouldn't be canceled like on a Friday. Although two weeks out. Yeah, the thing is pretty poor. This isn't there. There's races in Africa where this happens all the time. It always seems to happen at the county cup level, obviously, because it's smaller local organizing committees, and I understand it is harder for them to put on races.
00;23;34;28 - 00;24;00;06
Lockie
But we understand that at the same time. Yes, you are correct. Like if we have to face some punishment, punishment and we get punished, if we pull off too late, we get punished. If we even, federations get punished if they make substitutions between athletes at the wrong time. So why are local organizing committees of federations not also getting punished for, you guys have paid all this money to come here, and two weeks before, we just pulled it from under.
00;24;00;07 - 00;24;18;17
Lockie
Yeah. Just because of circumstances we didn't maybe predict. Exactly like we're taking the race. There also has to be some risk. Risk on there. And. Exactly. I just think I'll go for it. What kind of, what kind of punishment are you after? I mean, we get as athletes, if you pull off light, you get a month. Yeah, month where you can't race.
00;24;18;21 - 00;24;35;03
Lockie
I think a year of you know, you get to put a race on who maybe, like, you get only a limited number of races that you can put on if you can, only because New Zealand have said that they could do three this year. Yeah, they have a World Cup at the end of the year. Yeah. Whatever that goes ahead.
00;24;35;05 - 00;24;38;08
Lockie
I don't, I don't be booking your flights.
00;24;38;10 - 00;24;45;03
Lleyton
I was going to do it. I like welcome to Asian events like you always do. So good.
00;24;45;05 - 00;24;58;18
Lockie
But I don't know maybe it's like, well, you can only hold this level of race, or you can only hold one race a year or limit them, or your national relay ranking loses points.
00;24;58;19 - 00;25;00;28
Lleyton
Well, potentially something like that could work.
00;25;00;28 - 00;25;22;18
Lockie
That's where actually the athletes are impacted. The federation. Well, unfortunately. And if like nations are going to go put on races, it's an international sport. They should be have some kind of I guess what's the word like they held accountable. Accountability. No. Why? You're asking me for the world.
00;25;22;21 - 00;25;23;10
Lleyton
To be so.
00;25;23;13 - 00;25;24;01
Lockie
Like a massive.
00;25;24;01 - 00;25;27;14
Lleyton
Source out there should be held accountable for their.
00;25;27;14 - 00;25;43;14
Lockie
Actions. That's that's probably my thing. Yeah. Whatever it is, I don't know, maybe it could be a mixed team relay kind of penalty. Like they aren't allowed to race the next mixed relay. Well, look, I haven't had that problem happen to me yet, so I'm not as passionate about it as you are. But I understand the frustration. I understand the pressure.
00;25;43;14 - 00;25;44;18
Lleyton
It's more it is.
00;25;44;18 - 00;26;02;22
Lockie
Very much more on a country level like the World Cup in the WTS, they don't really tend to get usually their funding has been kind of like determined a year out. Yeah. Pro World Cup because they're quite expensive this TV right. So there's there's a bit more marketing and media to come out about that. There's better avenues to make money.
00;26;02;22 - 00;26;04;01
Lockie
Yeah. For them.
00;26;04;06 - 00;26;07;19
Lleyton
But yeah the, the old, the old country level of.
00;26;07;19 - 00;26;09;19
Lockie
Racing, it's a slap in the ass.
00;26;09;21 - 00;26;10;13
Lleyton
It is.
00;26;10;14 - 00;26;19;22
Lockie
What do you feel like you got that off your chest? Yeah, I have now. Yeah I feel I feel a bit better. I was running it for about four days. You seemed a little pent up out, so I was wondering what was going on.
00;26;19;24 - 00;26;22;25
Lleyton
Yeah. Well, angry now I have to try.
00;26;22;25 - 00;26;24;13
Lockie
And chase Airbnb, my.
00;26;24;14 - 00;26;27;09
Lleyton
Nonrefundable RV. Me that I've bought.
00;26;27;12 - 00;26;31;25
Lockie
But like with, I always ask, like, do you want to add on $100 yet for the cancellation fee?
00;26;31;26 - 00;26;35;26
Lleyton
No, I don't want to cancel, you idiot. It's going to hell on me. I'll be there whether.
00;26;35;26 - 00;26;52;00
Lockie
I'm sick or not. So it doesn't matter. Like you're going to email the. Hey, guys, I don't know what happened. I paid for the $100 cancellation fee. Obviously. Fault on your end? Yeah. Pay me all my money back. Yeah. Anyway, like we said, big weekend this weekend on the Goldie. Yep. Gold Coast. Oh, we're going to be there.
00;26;52;07 - 00;26;52;26
Lockie
It's revving up.
00;26;52;26 - 00;26;53;26
Lleyton
Yeah, we'll be there.
00;26;53;28 - 00;26;58;06
Lockie
We'll be there. We, we should make up fake media badges.
00;26;58;09 - 00;26;59;09
Lleyton
When we get.
00;26;59;12 - 00;27;14;28
Lockie
Out for media badge. Did you? Yeah. Oh, well. But they haven't responded. I wonder who. Yeah. Okay. Well, do you have any there? Who's that? Wins? He's only comes out on a Friday. Yeah. I'm pretty sure the rising star Saturday. So we're leaving us as a very late. But two one hundreds on the Gold Coast, which is cool.
00;27;14;28 - 00;27;34;16
Lockie
Yeah I own backyard I bet. And there's a lot going on. There is a lot going on. There's a lot of events, which is cool. I'll tell you what, there's a big community thing. There's not a lot going on in the in the women's elite race. So. Well, that's, the start list is quite it's is very Oceania dominant.
00;27;34;19 - 00;27;56;17
Lockie
It's not what we predicted. It's not it's not the big sort of spectacle that we thought, oh, it's it doesn't feel the hot pull of this 100. Doesn't feel quite like we thought it would six months ago when it got announced, I think because when, when it first, when it first got announced, we thought both men and women were going to be racing and I think that's where T100 went wrong.
00;27;56;18 - 00;28;14;16
Lockie
They also feel as if like if it was just a men's race, it would be pretty boring as well. Not boring, but like you'd be, it would be like a bit, or I think I want to see a whole spectacle a whole weekend, like two days of racing. Yeah, I want to see all going on. It's not helped that we.
00;28;14;16 - 00;28;29;09
Lockie
I think we definitely built it around Gentle Australia, Australia's sort of golden child, a golden athlete in that sort of very small course. It is still like a very I think that it's still a pretty quality field. I mean.
00;28;29;10 - 00;28;31;00
Lleyton
It's not like your massive.
00;28;31;00 - 00;28;54;13
Lockie
Big names will still be good race. Let me get it. I understand you tell the Browns coming over, we have, Thailand coming over. Yeah. Who else? Who's the promoter? Finish now promoting Ellie Salthouse a lot, but Ellie Salthouse is the Australian hope. Yeah. Danny DeFrancesco making their day to travel. That's cool.
00;28;54;16 - 00;28;55;22
Lleyton
So, Sara.
00;28;55;23 - 00;29;17;22
Lockie
Perez. Sala, do you know her? She was the one that did the para. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not leaving Covid in. It's very Oceania. Don't we have just fully go? Yeah. Nicole van de k you mean Gene Simmons? Oh. She's back. Yeah. Rebecca Clark and a few longer course. It's like it's I it's.
00;29;17;22 - 00;29;18;27
Lleyton
Not, it's not.
00;29;19;00 - 00;29;37;28
Lockie
I think backwards field. We're missing ash dental. We're missing Kate Wolf. Now K Wolf was another like, big one that people wanted to see the reigning champ out there. That's true. But now that we're not going to be saying those two shows, we're not saying those two. And the fact that Geelong has got the men's race, that it does say, I think that's where two 100 went wrong here.
00;29;37;28 - 00;29;55;09
Lockie
I think Iron Men have won this battle. They have between two 100 and Iron Man this weekend. Iron man one, it goes to Iron Man. They're licking their lips right now because they do have three world champions racing in the same race I reckon. Win Geelong sort of. I can't remember who was on their first, but it was yellow.
00;29;55;12 - 00;30;14;01
Lockie
Was it yellow and blue? Me yeah, yellow and blue. Me were always racing. And then I think when Hayden's now jumped on the stylist, I've just gone, oh my god. And and that's a win to. Yeah. Iron man one nil massively massively. They've now that I mean we've got so many there's going to be massive age group races.
00;30;14;01 - 00;30;34;09
Lockie
You got Maddie. How's it doing. The ten K I think that was hoping to be the next big pool for the men's. But nah it's just not enough. Yeah it's it's sad that it hasn't quite got the hype like I feel in Australia it was still have hype and it should be a good race. Yeah. And atmosphere hopefully when we go down there and watch it.
00;30;34;12 - 00;30;36;00
Lleyton
But the fact that.
00;30;36;00 - 00;30;56;20
Lockie
Geelong is on at the same time, on the same weekend, when we could have had that quality all in the Gold Coast, let's work out our schedules to be better next year. Yeah, okay. 100 and on men like, let's not have a massive men's race in a massive women's race, same weekend, same weekend, different entities and like different and even the age group is have to think where they're going.
00;30;56;20 - 00;31;15;10
Lockie
Yeah. So I do I want to race AT1 hundred or do I want to go race Geelong. Yeah. And then potentially qualify for niece. What's really annoying is I mean well it's not annoying, but obviously Maddie has. I did Geelong last year. Yeah. Imagine if he was doing Geelong again this year right. Yeah. They surely would have gone.
00;31;15;10 - 00;31;32;06
Lockie
That probably would have been. You would have had your world champion. Sure. Course world champion two 100 world champion, half Ironman. And I know Christian didn't win in the full Iron Man, but he got third. We'll say oh he's he does have a title the Covid. Yeah exactly. Oh no he's one one but not not the previous. He's not.
00;31;32;07 - 00;31;54;17
Lockie
Oh yeah. Yeah. He's not the current world champion. But he was on the podium. So you know you literally have a full range of short to the longest possible distance racing in one race. That that's cool. That is a race. Yeah. Hypothetically speaking obviously could has is not there. Yeah. But yeah that would have been awesome. But then also you have why maybe some of the women haven't come over.
00;31;54;17 - 00;32;17;22
Lockie
I know we have a few injured. But we don't have like the top, top t women coming over. It's in Australia. Yeah, it's a bit of a pain, especially with what's going on at the moment. I understand, like, so going to stay in Europe and potentially just race the 70.3 around. Yeah. In America. Yeah I I'm in Texas.
00;32;17;22 - 00;32;35;28
Lockie
Yeah. Coming up. So 70 points I don't know if that's 70.3 or full but yeah there's there's races elsewhere. Yeah. So she's a bit of a bull like but hopefully hopefully it has a good hype around it. Yeah. Yeah it'll still be a good race to watch. There's still a few fair few good women. But more Oceania dominant.
00;32;35;28 - 00;32;59;02
Lockie
Yeah. Which I thought we would have. I think what we thought was the draw a bit more international. Yeah. To it. Exactly. That's right. That that is kind of the, the downfall of racing in Oceania, which is far away from everything. Yeah. The fact that yellow lives here. And, Haydn is over the ditch. Yeah. Kind of draws people to Geelong.
00;32;59;02 - 00;33;16;04
Lockie
Yeah, I like it's easy. It's a pro race to get by. Yeah, that's a huge one. If we want to move on to that, which we've kind of talked about it, I don't know too much. Magellan. So it's, you know, not really. I've, I bit the big dogs racing in and I think it's going to be say, oh, let's just make it super quick.
00;33;16;04 - 00;33;45;18
Lockie
Who do you think's winning out of those three? Podium right there. 123. I think Christian's coming third. Yeah. So, Hayden. Yeah. Hayden. Yellow. Hayden. Your name? Anybody? Mo you could go. Whatever. I think I think Hayden I think he could win it as well. Hayden. Sorry. Hayden. Yellow. Christian yeah. Also just listening to the all intros on Paul I don't think yellow yellow's been he's more going.
00;33;45;20 - 00;34;05;06
Lockie
He wants to go longer but he's also been a little bit sick I think. Yeah that was a few weeks ago. So yeah I don't know I don't know. It'll be exciting. But also I this might be my favorite race of the weekend because I'm really curious, say that I'm really curious to see how he's going to go.
00;34;05;10 - 00;34;23;18
Lockie
Yeah. Matt. Heather versus Alex. Yeah, he's actually doing it. I thought he was I say don't you saying things that we don't know yet. We told ourselves we weren't going to do that. I don't know if it's confirmed that he's doing okay. We can't confirm. We can't confirm. But there's obviously been Russell's in the bushes here in Australia.
00;34;23;21 - 00;34;26;12
Lockie
Yeah. If you reply to our DM we could have got him on.
00;34;26;12 - 00;34;28;02
Lleyton
An ox team. Yeah.
00;34;28;03 - 00;34;39;12
Lockie
Alex Layton got excited again. One of those like lightning did it again went on the DMs. Still no reply. I've been looking at the phone every day. Did Alex last week.
00;34;39;12 - 00;34;39;27
Lleyton
And he's.
00;34;39;27 - 00;34;51;10
Lockie
Not said a word at it. He's responded to us before, so we know it's in his DNA. Yeah. And he saw the last message about the, pre-race rituals. He'll see it next week. Yeah. No, sorry. Sorry, boys. On a.
00;34;51;11 - 00;34;54;15
Lleyton
Fine line. But if.
00;34;54;15 - 00;34;58;28
Lockie
That race does happen, Alex.
00;34;59;01 - 00;35;17;07
Lockie
I think Alex will have him. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I think he has is great. What? What time do you think these boys will run? Because we had this discussion. Was it with Matt or was it with Aaron where we said, what do you believe the fastest ten K could be off the bike? Oh, man, that's just hurting my brain.
00;35;17;07 - 00;35;37;26
Lockie
I think a lot of it has a I think it was I think he said 2830 is off the bike. But I know Alex was in the 28 in the Paris Olympic Test event. Okay. He was in the 28 to the ten. But we obviously saw Hayden's run at the start of last year, which was a 2740.
00;35;37;26 - 00;35;48;25
Lockie
Yeah. Something. Yeah I think I'm in the ballpark there. But around there, around there very quick, rapid, too quick to comprehend, really rapid. Do we think hazard is going sub 28?
00;35;48;28 - 00;35;50;05
Lleyton
Oh fuck.
00;35;50;07 - 00;36;08;21
Lockie
I couldn't tell you the thing. The only thing the course is pretty like undulating. Yeah. Hills for the people who don't know the the 10-K course this weekend. It's also for me it's going to be very wind dependent because if you've got a southerly like the wind coming from the south, you're going to have a headwind for 80% of.
00;36;08;21 - 00;36;25;13
Lockie
Yeah. The way. Yeah. The I think they've got it like a twilight time. So I think usually the wind settles down a little bit. Yeah. So you never know. You never know. Yeah I think there's a cyclone off the coast. So if it's windy, if it's windy and the wind's going the wrong way, it's not a quick running.
00;36;25;13 - 00;36;45;03
Lockie
No. And also like, if he doesn't have someone post someone passing or runners around him, I think it's going to be harder to run a sub 28 running through five K at 14 minutes. Like who? Who's Casey? Yeah, I'd have to go run a 15 second 22nd PB to just through five K just to pace you through five K.
00;36;45;03 - 00;36;50;27
Lockie
Yeah. Like it's insane. That's insane. You get one person on the front for every single K.
00;36;50;27 - 00;36;53;06
Lleyton
Yeah. So maxi you got to just.
00;36;53;06 - 00;37;09;26
Lockie
Like sprint okay. Just him. He gets his whole squad just like one K reps. It's like, go run as fast as you can for. Okay. All right. Okay. Let's just put it down then suggest best case scenario conditions. Perfect. Perfect conditions. What's he running?
00;37;09;29 - 00;37;13;21
Lleyton
27 oh 50. Do you reckon it okay.
00;37;13;21 - 00;37;35;17
Lockie
You reckon he's going? Yeah. Other. I actually can't even fathom running that quick so I wouldn't know I was going to go 2815. Okay. 22 conditions. Perfect conditions. Okay. I just don't see weekend. I don't think there's roll under 2830. I think he's going over and you think he's going under I need to go under. Yeah. I just don't think we have the athletes to pace him.
00;37;35;17 - 00;37;58;13
Lockie
Yeah. That's also going to be an issue. It's yeah. No I don't think he's going to go but he's going to go close in very quick. And that's also an impressive change that Sunday. No that's a Sunday okay. Yeah. If Alex is to do it I honestly think Alex was Alex would probably be 15 to 20. He would only just go into 20 I think 2028.
00;37;58;13 - 00;38;18;17
Lockie
Sorry. Yeah. It's early days. Yeah. It's it's very early days okay. Well they are that's a few races going on. Not really our domain. Those longer course races on the ten K road race, I take a road race I think we've got. I couldn't fathom going. That crazy hurts me to think about going that quick.
00;38;18;20 - 00;38;19;07
Lleyton
And we'll get.
00;38;19;07 - 00;38;41;11
Lockie
On to the last race of the weekend, the made a nice important one of course. Yeah. How co haiku world cup not haiku. Haiku world Cup in China apparently it's on a little island. Okay. Below China just off the coast. China got quite a few World Cups. Yeah. World series like they they do put on quite a few races, which is really nice.
00;38;41;11 - 00;39;01;09
Lockie
And they do put on a bit of a show when you there. Yeah. They really look after. Yeah they look after. But there is a challenge racing in Asia. Maybe we'll do a podcast on that about the challenges that you face racing in Asia. I did what the challenges. Sometimes it can be pretty crap. I feel like they didn't like it.
00;39;01;12 - 00;39;14;11
Lockie
I feel like sometimes they don't like me very much. Probably not. You've got the tattoos. No. I have had on. I think I've probably spoken about it on the podcast before. I've definitely been targeted for my tattoos over there before what I've, I've had to, like, cover them up or they haven't let me in the pool. Yeah I've had.
00;39;14;11 - 00;39;16;14
Lockie
Do you have the tiger which.
00;39;16;14 - 00;39;17;00
Lleyton
Is which.
00;39;17;00 - 00;39;35;19
Lockie
In Osaka? I was a gang, see. And it was the a soccer race. Yeah. I had to. Where I had to wear a long sleeve rash so they they wouldn't let me swim. I'll do my while. I was doing my pre-race warm in a long sleeve rash. Yeah. And they got those poles. Imagine me to. I literally would do about 400 babies and get out because my is drowning me.
00;39;35;22 - 00;39;40;19
Lockie
Yeah, I've got a I have a smiley face on the same. I'm not a gang member.
00;39;40;21 - 00;39;44;25
Lleyton
Who's got a rose. They're like, sorry mom. He's got sorry.
00;39;44;25 - 00;39;55;25
Lockie
Mom, I like I understand the tiger. I mean, there's yeah, I don't know, but I'm cool, man. Yeah, I just I just thought I looked cool on Pinterest.
00;39;55;28 - 00;39;56;09
Lleyton
Okay.
00;39;56;09 - 00;40;20;00
Lockie
There are definitely quite a few challenges rising in China, but hopefully in the World Cup level, they definitely stand to look after you below. Yeah. Haiku World Cup. Yeah. It's flat. Course. Yeah. If if you've race in China, it's flat highways. Very big roads, great infrastructure. Yeah. Not there have not.
00;40;20;02 - 00;40;44;17
Lockie
But yeah, I think it'll be run dominant as we said before. I mean it looks run dominant on both sides. Men and women. Oh my God. If you've seen the start list of the men it's crazy. It is honestly one of the most incredible. It's it's my nightmare of a World Cup. It looks disgustingly fast. I'm just going to go through the how quickly they run.
00;40;44;20 - 00;41;08;01
Lockie
Okay, here we are. Before you do the names, is it A5K, five K sprint distance. Yep. They're going close to they're going forward I know. Yeah we saw we saw David Quintero run a 1416 loss on Lanzarote. And he had a ten second penalty. Yeah. So there you are. This is a sprint distance. Yeah I mean it could be 1359.
00;41;08;03 - 00;41;31;07
Lockie
You're going to go on some 14 I could oh I don't know what I could I'm just going to say so they're all running together. They could David Quintero, Max Suda, Callum McCloskey Ollie Conway. Race venison, Roberto Sanchez that Matthias Bull I never know how to say last night Billy bully. Hugo Milner. Who else is there?
00;41;31;09 - 00;41;34;12
Lockie
That could be Michael Gar. Another great one.
00;41;34;15 - 00;41;36;19
Lleyton
00;41;36;21 - 00;42;04;13
Lockie
Tim Hellwig. Yeah. Nicholas Keller. Yep. And I can't find him, but the other, he race on the weekend. I, I do oh, the Moroccan, the Moroccan. Yeah. Anyway, he's there as well, so, like, you've got one of the best run races. Yeah. That's a, that's a South American run race. That's a World Series run run run.
00;42;04;13 - 00;42;30;03
Lockie
Yeah. Like that is scary. But yeah, I'm excited to watch it. I, I'm excited to watch it. I'm happy I'm not racing it, but I'm excited to watch it. Yeah, it'll be fast. Women's as well. I don't think the women's is as exciting. I fancy honest women, waiting for the World Series to stop. Yeah, yeah, I mean, I, I feel as if more of the women you're paying based.
00;42;30;05 - 00;42;49;08
Lockie
There's 20 more men on the start. Less than women. So there's only 38 women on the start list. And, you know, you still got like, Sean Rangeley. He's like, Liv Mathias is coming over. Sara, Mensa, the Spanish athlete, is going to be their designee right now. Yeah. With two Aussie girls, Sha dubs and, Sophie.
00;42;49;08 - 00;43;07;15
Lockie
Malachy. Yeah, they're going to be there. But yeah, just doesn't have quite that looking at it. It doesn't have that or like, wow, it's not quite as deep as the men's. I struggled to pick my men for a different reason to I struggled to pick the women. Yeah, kind of thing. Can I listen to him and then.
00;43;07;15 - 00;43;31;08
Lockie
Yeah. Okay. So my men, one of you ten, you going my picks. And now I was. This is tough, but Ollie Conway. Yep. Max Duda. Yep. I completely got the same in the thing as well. Hugo milner yep. Okay. I haven't put Quintero on the of the reason I haven't put Cantero on there. He's just run a race in Lanzarote.
00;43;31;11 - 00;43;52;29
Lockie
He's. Josh ran a 1416, 1460. If you take away the penalty. Yeah. Flat stick on a Sunday. Yeah. He's now going to come race. Yeah. Six days later. Yeah I just think it's going to take it out of him when you've got Ollie Conway Hugo Milner who've just done a massive block on the Gold Coast here. Big praise only thing with Hugo is he crashed the other day.
00;43;53;00 - 00;44;11;03
Lockie
I did say that he was in the air, but yeah, so he crashed on the way to create that night. I know I'm still going to pick him. Yeah, because he, he he's had a mean cross-country season. I think he, you know who comes in and Max dude out the Swiss, he just races in China. He's good in China.
00;44;11;04 - 00;44;34;14
Lockie
You just have student number one. Well, good in China. Kentaro I'm going into the pedigree. Yeah, he's top one. If it's a run race, you got to have Kentaro there. I felt I really struggled to not put him on. And then I have Hugo Milner. I do believe Studer and Milner are more ten k guys. Yeah, but I think I'll get done.
00;44;34;16 - 00;44;39;18
Lockie
Why not? Conway?
00;44;39;21 - 00;44;40;29
Lleyton
I don't, I.
00;44;41;01 - 00;44;44;29
Lockie
Just think just three better. Yeah. Flavor of the month. Yeah.
00;44;45;02 - 00;44;47;01
Lleyton
Five of them.
00;44;47;04 - 00;45;05;19
Lockie
Something like that again. And we'll give our Aussie boys, a shout out because we can't know, but we've got Callum McCluskey, Brandon Copeland, Toby Powers, Brighton Mercer. Yeah. Full boys repping the Green and Gold Co. All those, all four of those boys just raced on the weekend as well. So, and they're all around the mark.
00;45;05;21 - 00;45;29;28
Lockie
Yeah. So we'll see how that goes. Okay. The women's women, I've got number one, Sean Risley. Yeah. Number two, I got the Russian. Not Russian. I mean, what does that stand for again? In, I don't know, athletes, independent nation. Yeah. I'm not, Diana. You said Kova. Yep. And then said I went shot obs.
00;45;30;01 - 00;45;31;00

00;45;31;03 - 00;45;31;21
Lleyton
Yeah.
00;45;31;24 - 00;45;38;28

00;45;39;00 - 00;45;41;15
Lleyton

00;45;41;15 - 00;46;00;09

Lockie
Which was gratis.
00;46;04;27 - 00;46;06;01
Lleyton
00;46;06;03 - 00;46;23;14
Lockie
Yeah. Okay. The women obviously did, but I think it's gonna be a run race just as much as the men. Yeah, especially when you go to a small field like that. Like I think they're going to be just as much of a run. Yes. So. And they're all. Yeah, quality women. I think if they can all run under 16, I mean, not under 67 on this.
00;46;23;16 - 00;46;37;29
Lockie
Yeah. That's a rabbit. Rabbit. 17. They're all like 17. Some 17 girls. Yeah. Yeah, sure. And this is definitely at a better time for us to watch. So yeah, you'll be able to experience a new live stream. Have you paid for it? No. So you do need my account details. Yep.
00;46;38;02 - 00;46;40;14
Lleyton
Okay.
00;46;40;16 - 00;46;45;24
Lockie
Yeah. Fair enough. We just make an unfunded run on the card that. Yeah, doesn't have a daddy on it.
00;46;45;26 - 00;46;48;27
Lleyton
We'll go to the overdraft, which is?
00;46;48;27 - 00;46;53;16
Lockie

00;46;53;20 - 00;46;55;29
Lleyton
Not the tax money. Yeah.
00;46;56;01 - 00;47;18;29
Lockie
All righty. So plenty happening, plenty going on, reviewing lots. Thanks to all the people that are new on the Instagram as well. Please. Like those graphics that I put up because they can take me a long time to do so. Please give me some support on the Instagram. Yeah. Oh, actually, you know, I've got one thing to say that I, I, I wanted to touch on this with, Davenport.
00;47;19;03 - 00;47;42;06
Lockie
Yeah. So I came on here and I said there was one thing that really upset me about Napier. Yeah. And what was it? I remember being called a veteran. Oh, yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I did get veterans go veteran. Did I get go veterans. It's all I heard on the course. Yeah it was go veterans. And the commentator was calling me a veteran who's the commentator I don't know, but I had him.
00;47;42;06 - 00;48;04;17
Lockie
Wasn't Falco. No I reckon Falco was in his ear telling him to call me a vet on the veterans before I would even lined up, I was walking out and he goes, oh, I've heard there's also a battle between the two veterans, Lachlan Jones and Kyle Wall, and I've gone, what the fuck? How how is this? And everyone was just saying, go, oh go!
00;48;04;17 - 00;48;09;29
Lockie
The unfunded oh, that was really awesome. Those like, I'm not even known as an individual.
00;48;10;01 - 00;48;12;12
Lleyton
Like known as you're the veteran.
00;48;12;14 - 00;48;13;06
Lockie

00;48;13;09 - 00;48;15;08
Lleyton
You're the. Oh, it's lucky.
00;48;15;11 - 00;48;30;19
Lockie
It's time to retire. I honestly love the old podcast guy. No that's you. And I was it was. That's what he known for. I was on the start line. We'd lined up in our number order and the Schofield's pulled me out, but they were like, we feel really bad because they're all calling you the veteran, but we're all older than you.
00;48;30;21 - 00;48;46;11
Lockie
I'm like, how does that make like, how does that make sense to match Coco's son? Yeah. And then I put up my Instagram post, you know, recapping the race in the first two comments were veteran veteran comments. And like I've it's you know what it is I salute you. It's it's as soon as you don't like something. Yeah.
00;48;46;12 - 00;49;02;21
Lockie
People sink their teeth in more. Yeah. He said and you bought bastards of sunk him teeth into it and it's breaking my heart. I don't like it. From the veteran and the young buck. I thank you.
