Nic Beveridge

Sport: Triathlon

  • Nic was 17 years old when he woke one morning to discover he was paralysed from the chest down. He had transverse myelitis, a rare neurological condition which attacks the spinal cord, and his was particularly aggressive.

    Although Nic enjoyed sport during his teens, it was not until a stint in hospital during the London 2012 Paralympic Games that his passion for sport returned and he began to research sporting options.

    Inspired by Bill Chaffey, a five-time world champion in Paralympic triathlon, Nic contacted Triathlon Queensland and was classified. He made his international debut the following year at the 2013 International Triathlon Union World Triathlon Grand Final in London, England.

Nic made his Paralympic debut at Rio 2016 Paralympic Games when Triathlon also made its debut at the Games and finished in the Top 10 in the PT1 event. Nic also competed at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games in the PTWC where he finished seventh.

Not only is Nic pursuing qualification for his third Australian Paralympic Team in Paris 2024, but also completing a degree in law, and has recently completed a 6-month internship with our legal team here at Allianz.

Nic’s focus is on purpose and passion, in his sporting career and beyond. Through purpose and by truly loving what you’re doing, Nic believes you can build mental strength to help you perform at your best.
