Summary

This episode is sponsored by Official Beer Co. Produced by Podfire. In this special episode of the Unfunded Triathlon Podcast, Lockie and Lleyton sit down with World Triathlon President Antonio Arimany for an in-depth conversation about the biggest changes shaping the future of the sport. Antonio explains how World Triathlon achieved its historic A1 governance classification, why transparency and athlete-first decision making have become key priorities, and the vision behind the new partnership between World Triathlon and the PTO. He breaks down the creation of the Triathlon World Tour, the introduction of the T50 and T100 World Championships under one commercial structure, increased prize money, the future race calendar, and the long-term goal of making triathlon a truly global spectator sport. The conversation also explores broadcast accessibility, athlete pathways, paratriathlon development, the growing relationship with HYROX, ambitions for new Olympic events ahead of Brisbane 2032, and the opportunities that lie ahead for both elite athletes and age-group competitors.
