Perhaps surprisingly Voucherbox found that triathlon was the quickest discipline to master - requiring an average time investment of just 5200 hours over the next four years or 25 hours of training each and every week. Would be triathletes also need deep pockets with a total investment of £322,400 required to have any real chance of making the podium in Tokyo. Yet that looks like a snip compared to the enormous costs involved in mastering an equestrian sporting discipline. To start now as a novice and be ready for Team GB's equestrian team in 2020 you'll have to put in a massive 6240 hours of training, or 30 hours a week, and make a huge investment of £468,000.
